Step 3Rear-Facing Rack Mount
This one is even simpler as it doesn't require any used bike parts, just regular bolts and washers from the hardware store.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to find one washer that was simultaneously large enough to make 3 points of contact on my rack, with a 3/8" hole in the center, so I had to stack a small washer onto a larger washer.
So what you want to do here is take your bolt, slip on a lock washer, a small washer, a larger washer, then feed the bolt through some opening on your bike's rack, then the larger washer, the small washer, and a locknut.
