(Illinois)</strong> who wrote, "Thanks for the good service and fast delivery." He also took the time to take some pictures of his new <a href="http://www.stowaway2.com/product.aspx?id=86&amp;cid=37">Swingaway Cargo Rack</a>-- with some custom additions. <br /><br /><a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_W7r3FCoMZI4/SBImfiquuiI/AAAAAAAAAeE/yl8X7uZ-Wro/s1600-h/insulation1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5193255643635431970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_W7r3FCoMZI4/SBImfiquuiI/AAAAAAAAAeE/yl8X7uZ-Wro/s400/insulation1.jpg" border="0" /></a> The Swingaway Cargo Rack will clear just about every liftgate with no contact. However, "barn doors" -- double doors that open from the middle and have hinges on the outside-- can sometimes provide limited clearance or even contact the rack, as is pictured below.<br /><br /><a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_W7r3FCoMZI4/SBImgCquujI/AAAAAAAAAeM/Za5Rpt0tSfc/s1600-h/insulation2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5193255652225366578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_W7r3FCoMZI4/SBImgCquujI/AAAAAAAAAeM/Za5Rpt0tSfc/s400/insulation2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />Alan's solution was simple and cheap: "I just put 3/4 hot water pipe insulation on the basket to keep the door from getting scratched." <div> </div><div>Check out the clearance his setup has in the shot below.</div><div> </div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5193255656520333890" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_W7r3FCoMZI4/SBImgSquukI/AAAAAAAAAeU/m_AR6BqFaNM/s400/insulation3.jpg" border="0" /></div><br /><p>Thanks for taking the time to send those shots in, Alan!
