Does anyone know of any bicycle racks for Toyubaru?

As a MTB myself I wondered what could be done, surprising enough there is a bike rack being manufactured.
Screws onto the tow hook connections at the back.

I bought the type that has Nylon straps and metal clips to fasten a rack onto the car. Haven't tried it on my 86 yet as I have another car for getting my MTB to the track... But it should work fine for the 86. have a look at http://www.buzzrack.com/home.php which is available from Sportsmans Warehouse @ +/-R1199

If you did use it on your 86 I'd recommend putting some cloth or padding between the clips and the paint because although it's rubberized, it may still leave some small scratches.

Ryan's suggestion ^ is far better IF you can find something like this since the 86 is not recommended to have a tow bar and this will rule out any sort of towbar-type solution.

Thanks... Saw Ryan's version elsewhere in forum.

I could just use my Prado, but I like going out of town for a ride sometimes and would prefer to be out in the Toyabaru!

Will investigate your suggestion

when I finally get mine!
