get some brake inserts for the calipers as if you squeeze without the disc in the pistons dont return enough and pop out the caliper.
all bike shops have piles of these in the workshop to trade for biscuits..
i have equal amounts of stuff just level load it and lay the bike on top with the front wheel off and forks behind the driver...

I have a spare set of sit on rails for a pendle bike rack,i have 3 and only use 2....
it would need to have some tubes fitted so it could fit onto the towbar bracket you can buy,,,
that would make a very cheap standon pendle bike rack....

I get my 16" Orange Five in the back of mine with just the front wheel off. Forks against bulkead behind passenger seat, back wheel just squeezes in back door in opposite corner. When I need to have more bikes, I have a carrier that bolts on to the spare wheel bracket. I can hang another three bikes from here.

I've been thinking of how I'm going to carry my dh and enduro bikes as well as friends bikes when we go to events in the 110double cab too.
I've got a exmoor hood and 33x12.5 spare on the back so just landing them into the tub and letting them hang out over the sides or over the tail-gate isn't that practical.
Was originally thinking of making a frame to put inside the tub to mount the bikes inside it at maybe and angle or something that the forks and frame mount to with the wheels off across the tub behind the bulkhead...
But thinking it would be just so much easier and quicker to just run without the spare wheel when I have the bikes with me and make up a nice carrier for two or three bikes that bolts onto the swing-away carrier instead of the wheel.
It's fairly unlikely I'll get a puncture anyway unless I'm going somewhere really mad in which case I can just throw the spare into the back if really needed.

Couldn't you have a rack that sits on the tub?
