Here are lots of pictures on a '04 tacoma with 3/16th plate welded on the sides and quickfists for the axe and shovel. To test it I threw about 200 lbs of firewood wood up there and was surprised to see there was very little flex in the basket, I was expecting much more to be honest. I would have no problem putting water/gas up there aside from the obvious center of gravity rise. I couldn't be happier with it and I even paid $75 instead of $60!
