I would love to run out and snap you a picture of the one I built , but my wife decided to park my truck in the side of another bigger truck at about 40 and its no longer with us.

Really not too much to it.

Not too artistic tonight , but this will give you some idea. The 2x4 troughs keep the wheels from turning and they are at the front. With tiedowns on my bikes I could leave the tail gate down and nothing was moving. I wound up just using a nut on the bottom of the plywood and then tightened it alot and pulled the nut into the plywood . Then ground off the eye bolt where it didn't scratch my bed. If your bed has the humps this may not be necessary.
