Alright, so I didn't have the 30 bucks for the "custom one" what's his face sells, so I made my own out of some U bar steel... We'll see how it works tonight.

Total cost: $0
Total time: 20 minutes
Easyness on a scale of 1-10: 0

it was übereasy.... I just drilled a hole at one end, measured it up and cut the other end off, measured and drilled the other hole, used some vice grips to flatten out the ends, and put it in... the holes were drilled witha drill press btw... I also had the bar just sitting around here.
I'm thinking about getting some thicker aluminum L or U bar and making a better one that uses both bolts.
