I have the bed extender, doing it over id use the cargo rack. Only issue is they appear to block the taillights.
Any links to the cargo rack that you favor? I want to see how they are mounted and how much they carry. I am a bit worried about putting much weiht on the tailgate with an extender
I cant say enough good things about my Seizmik bed extender.
very convenient and well built, gets out of the way when you dont need it and easy to extend when you do

P1000 - Rear Cargo Storage
Just thought I'd share an inexpensive cargo carrier I installed today. Picked up both the dual hitch mount and atv cargo carrier at Harbor Freight (20% coupon of course) for around $65 bucks. Gives me ability to tow trailer and carry more junk when needed. Bed still dumps with no interference.

The lead idea for cheap and easy. I'll fab up some sort of support bars to the cage to take pressure off of the hitch. Beyond that, I like the idea of adding a hitch under the bed and using a more standard cargo carrier. Same deal though, I'll fab up supports to the cage but I overthink/overbuild everything.
the seizmik takes all the weight off the tailgate cables and tailgate itself. its braced to the pins that the tailgate mounts to and the cable mounts at the top.
i can stand on the back rail of it and it doesnt put weight on the tailgate
Dang, I do like the way that works. And company is about 8 miles from my house! I wonder if they have a scratch and dent sale...

One design that I really liked is from Dirt Road Fabrication LLC I wanted the ability to seat my kids in the back with the rear curtain closed to limit dust and have the ability to haul a cooler and snack box. I spoke to Jared and he was willing to make whatever you needed. When the pandemic hit, I was like a lot of people and needed a couple of projects to keep busy. I ended up making my own but I would definitely give him a look. I was a little worried about the extra weight in the back but it works really well. @Dirt-roadfab

I've had zero issues with weight on tailgate its held up great. The one I see the most for cargo rack is built by @Moses theres a lot of them out there. But his is pretty solid. My buddy did break a weld and fixed it. @Remington .
This is what I have by jei.

I ordered the utv cargo carrier from harbor freight. I'll do a dedicated post when it comes in. Plan is to fab up some supports to make it stronger. Time and money made the choice. This thing is already trying to $500 me into the poor house and I don't have time to build something myself until after deer season.

Another vote for the seizmik. I like that it's always with me but I can fold it up and close the tailgate and it takes up little space. I could see it being a problem if you were planning on using the dump bed often, but it does flop down out of the way if need be.
decided to fabricate some side rails- working on overhead attachments to further this build
Here is my extender. very well built and opens with removal of two pins. Tailgate can be open or closed. Sorry dont have a better picture at this time
