Just picked up my trailer hitch receiver cabinet from the powder coaters.

Now what are you going to do when you scratch the new finish? Looks good, can you post some pics of it mounted and loaded?

This is a problem I need to solve too, there are some good ideas in this thread. Jon, I like what you built, interested in seeing it all loaded up.

JJ:i love your idea and the quality of your work as always. just curious if you might have tried to put too many in the cabinet so I'd love to see it loaded too and see how easy it is to remove or put a hitch in or out when you need to make a change.

the idea of the one that looks plastic behind the wheel hub in the truck bed looks like it wouldn't survive a week or two in my neighborhood or some of the places i tend to park.

good luck

Here's what I ended up doing for my storage.


I really like it ! I made a similar rack for my vises, indexing head and rotary tables. Its fixtured to the jib crane main mast. Kind of a pick and place idea.
