Here are some pics. Quality is on the notsogood side :obsessed:

This is the back side of the rack and where the L chan. would fit the pic. down below.

This is a s/s 2x2 tube to help support the rack from going in a outwerd way, also a lock pin to hold it into position.

There is a bolt stainless steel that acts as the swivel point and bronz upper and lower bushings that slide inside the bolt and then the s/s locking nut.
