SUV cargo barrier on the CHEAP!

This is a cross post from the Land Cruiser section, but I thought some might find the idea useful. I've looked at a lot of rack options and this fits the bill perfectly for strength and ease of installation. Surly there are more deals like this lingering around. From another post:

... - I have been after a rear cargo barrier to isolate storage as well as have a good place to mount first aid, fire extinguisher, and other kit. Well, the cost is HUGE and shipping only makes it worse.

So, I'm at the hardware store looking for racking or fencing to make something temporarily when I spy a four wing wire mesh display sitting near the dumpster. Long story short they GAVE it to me - and it had all the right hardware to make it work easily. A little time with the bolt cutters and some spray can bed liner and Voila! I have a barrier for about $20 in materials and fasteners. It is VERY securely locked in and should serve the needs of keeping gear off the pup when out and about.

I have tightened everything up - cut the barriers to exact fit and have solid mounts running from the hand hold bolts and anchor bars at the bottom. I'll try to post more pics of the finished product.
