I'm looking for a product that will fit in the front or rear 2" receiver on my H2 that has a bar that goes up as high as the roof rack so I can carry long pieces of wood molding. Anyone seen such a thing or am I going to have to build it myself?

I built my own so I could haul 16' stuff in the truck bed.
I used all 2"x1/4" wall tube and 3" channel for the top.
U might make a light duty one w/ 1" pipe and run a 6' piece of all thread thru it and put a top plate out of wood if your trim is fairly light.
Let the all thread go thru the top plate, pipe and your standard hitch tube then use nuts to tighten it up.
Could use 1 in front and 1 in back.
Cabelas has them too,http://www.cabelas.com/

Sounds like he needs a big rack to rest his wood on. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_redface.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

Do some searches for Hang Glider racks. I used to be into the sport and have seen quite a few racks that would be perfect for what you need.

Im not sure if there are any commercially available ones, of if you'd have to build your own though.

Here are some ideas:

Good Luck!
