My Idea for a home made bike rack for a Jeep

Looking to do something like this.

Your rear tire would be near the back of the seats and the fork would hang out the back over the tail gate.

I would either use two 1 inch square tubes(the black bar) with long bolts(blue dots) clamping it to the tire or I would use two huge U bolts and one square tube.

I'd bolt the fork mounts they use in pick ups to the tube to hold the fork in place and have a strap in the back to keep the rear tire down.

You should be able to do a bike on each side, front tires in the middle of the bike or next to the frame and plastic window. You would still have room for gear and beer.

What do you think? Room for improvement? I am thinking total cost under 50.
