Affordable tj cargo racks?

Anyone know of a decent small cargo rack for the tj?
I'm thinking of a bumper mount over the rear tire. Big enough to strap a tent and camping stuff for a long weekend I like the look of the Olympic cargo rack but 200 for a plastic tray seems ridiculous

Welcome suggestions

Thanks

Jeff

You may want to look at the cargo trays that fit into a 2" receiver. The are lower down, which makes them easier to load/unload and when you get there you can pull it off while you wheel (or whatever) and leave it in camp. The cargo trays can also be used w/ multiple vehicles (any w/ 2" receiver), and they won't block your view as much. They probably can carry more weight too...

etrailer.com has a bunch...

Issue with that is it's a 200 bumper to use the hitch option.... Or a hitch for a 100 or so to catch on stumps. Like the idea of those otherwise though. But if I get a hitch I'll want a small trailer :)

Ahhh... I had assumed you already had the hitch.
