 +I made a rack that bolts up to the HD Quick-Detach Sideplates.
  
-I did make a rack that bolts up to the HD QD side plates. The correct size for the uprights is 9/16" square stock which hardware stores don't carry so I ordered a foot of 9/16" keystock from Amazon for about $5 IIRC. The HD accessories use 1/4-20 screws so I did the same, drilled ​and tapped for them. The rest of the rack is made from 16ga ERW steel tubing plus some 1/8" plate for the gussets and box mounts.+The overall dimensions are 11" long x 8-1/2" wide.
