Default rear rack work tray

anyone have one of those? I just won a brand new one on ebay (beyond my better judgement-i hate ebay). But I couldnt pass up the deal - These retail for 130 bucks and I got it for 15 bucks plus 12 bucks shipping. 130 bucks is stupid rediculous but 27, its worth a try.

If you really want to use it you should get a rubber mat to make the surface more "sticky". I imagine that the kind of plastic it's made out of is pretty slippery. Slippery is not good when you are cutting or drilling things.

I planned on getting rubber spray adhesive and spraying the bottom so things would slide

holy crap - I advise that NOBODY buys the work tray - first off all it fits like S@!T. I dont know if I got a bad molded one but I had to take the ole dremel tool and notch out a large section of the front edge behind the seat to even get it to begin to get it on. You practically have to put all your weight on it to get the lock n ride cams in right.

I also have a rear body guard rack and I had to modify the rack to accomodate that which I totally expected to have to do. After 5 hours of modifying the work tray I finally got it on to my satisfaction. It still doesnt fit like I would expect around the edges and how the lock cams work but it looks good and will fit my purpose.

If you dont like spending time modifying stuff DONT GET ONE.

At least the person from EBAY gave me my money back because it didnt fit before I had to modify the hell out of it. They told me to throw it out or try and use it so I made some modifications.

If I spent full retail at 130 bucks (or any money for that fact!!) it soooo would not be worth it. I almost threw it out 3 time while working on it

Amazing, I have two lock and ride accessories & both are great. Good fits.

ps. Just talked to my dog and she doesn't want it anymore, peanut butter or not.

LOL - your dog likes peanuts

I would buy other lock and ride parts but I would make damn sure they fit before i laid oout the cash. Im just thankful I got my money back even if it was just 27 bucks

THIS IS WHY I HATE EBAY............I knew there would be something wrong........there always is. I cant think of one item I was 100% satisfied with from EBAY - oh wait............there was one.......my WARN winch.........that was perfect
