ABSTRACT:
A universal folding carrier for carrying objects on tailgates of pickup trucks and trunk lids of automobiles or the like has a frame to which a carrying member and a supporting member are pivotally mounted for movement between collapsed and extended positions. The carrying member is held by a pair of braces in its extended position for carrying objects and the supporting member is held in its extended position by bearing against the frame. The carrying member is a substantially U-shaped member having a bent forward end defining a clamping member and a pair of rearwardly extending carrying arms. The supporting member is a substantially U-shaped member having a forward foot bar and a pair of forwardly extending legs. When the carrier is in its operative extended position, the clamping member is clamped to the tailgate of a pickup truck or it rests against the trunk lid of an automobile.
