Frame mounts using pin box bolts. It is very close to, but not touching, the top of the pin box. Did not want to drill holes in the pin box to mount it. Frame is made from 2"x2" angle iron and a $20 receiver tube from Harbor Freight.

No disrespect intended and glad that works for you but I really don't like the idea of the bikes being 4'+ off the ground and more or less having to back the truck up every time I want to take one down.
