    Just chuck them in the load bed and clamp them on this tailgate protector.

    I used a bit of 2x1" and one of these when I put the bike in my Dad's escort van years ago.

    Add a couple of straps across the load bed and you're sorted.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    You might find the expansion or garage kits you can get for motorhomes might be worth a look as they are designed to bolt to an existing frame.

    e.g. £140

    How about one of those bike rack thingies that you normally find outside schools and shops bolted into the back?

    I have a Mitsubishi L200 and have been using a Saris Kool Rack with three fittings.

    Very easy to clip and unclip the bikes, very easy to remove from truck (telescopic, no tools required) and when left there (by mistake) no-one stolen from the truck in over a year as it appears built in.
