I too have been researching a bike rake for the Monty and I think I'm going to get a 2" Receiver fabed to mount on the Pin Box. I've seen several and talked to several with a similar setup and am told the bikes don't move and aren't as dirty as those on the back. A litter higher to put the bike on, but I think the two of us can do it, plus the newer bikes are much lighter than the ones I remember as a kid. As for putting them on the front of the TV, I've read posts where they interferred with cooling so I want to stay away from there. Thought about the heavier 2" receiver on the back, but think the pin box will be our best bet, plus having a long bed I have the clearance.
