Another cheap mod
After pricing rear cargo beds and reading a post from a member that was thinking about using an old yard cart for a cargo bed, I decided to build my own too.
So first I started looking for a suitable basket or bed. I looked at the heavy duty wagons, but they weren't strong enough. I found this for $59 http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=92655 I think I can make it work and for a lot less than $300 |

Re: Another cheap mod
good idea ks, are you going to line it with expanded metal or something of that sort to keep things from falling out?

Re: Another cheap mod
Nice find Killsumptin, seems you like to try and build your things you need like I do. I'm building my own really small bed for my cart because it is only going to used for looks and not functionable. But I cant afford the ones they sell so I will built it. Keep up the good work.
