Not a very good pic... Used a 3rd row seat out of a tahoe that I got for $30 at the wrecking yard...thing was brand new...folds down level with the roll bar.

Always ready for a ride!! This seat was home made with parts I had in the barn. Works very good.

I don't have a picture right now, but the way that mine attaches to the bed of the ranger is by premade inserts. They are cylindrical holes in the top of the side rails in the bed. The racks have rubber inserts that fit into the holes of the ranger bed and are tightened by a lever that causes the rubber insert to expand and stay in the cylindrical holes. Sry if that confusing. I'll try to get a pic soon.

Mine sits in the bed, ratchet strapped to the roll bar and down to the frame to keep the bed from kicking back.

just an FYI - I had the same type of rack over my ranger 6x6 with a frame built to hold it - it was probably heavier than the one in this picture but nevertheless over a year or two the rocking of the Polaris going over roads, bumps, etc. caused the welds to crack - just tell your buddy to keep an eye on them

*****SAFETY ON HIGH RACKS*****

Seen a couple reports of high racks on ranger mounted in bed that the beds are coming unlatched and dumping rides out!!!!! If I had one I would install some type of safety latch to keep it from doing this.Stay safe.

Goodyear Wrangler MT/R 245/75-16 10 ply Kevlar. If you decide to go that big then you need a clutch kit so you don't wear your transmission out. The Ranger also had to have a 3 inch lift and have the front tires extended forward 1.5 inches to be able fit the tires.

What are y'all using the bench seat racks for? I'm about to build a rack for varmint hunting but the ability to pivot is important for how I want to set it up.
