^^ He has the wheel racks, so all he needs is enough lash-down to keep 'em from rolling out of the racks. Canoe lashes would be clean, easy to use and cheap too.
Edit - - ah, but you were thinking tailgate pad, huh? Good way to maximize a short bed like that too.

Thanks everyone.. I agree, I need to buy new ropes.. but so far this works.
@cryptid01, this is my old '96 Mitsubishi L200.. got it when I finished high school; and used it (to carry my roadies) throughout my college years.. Did a full restore over a year ago, and still love it.
The white one is also an L200 (2010).
Cheers!
