i did this mod at my moms birthday party last weekend

first found half way between the top and bottom rack screws

i used 1/4 20 bolts and nuts, 2 inches long. This pic shows the bolts and the second tray in place

and this shot with all three racks in place

this way, i can do abts, burgers, bacon with all the extra space

That was the first and maybe the best mod I ever did to my smoker. My only regret is that I didnt do three additional levels! Can you imagine five racks full of ABTs? Yummmmm! (I may get around to that someday) The extra rack is great when I am doing turkey legs. But once again, be advised, mopping the lower level food can be a pain

I am on my thrid or forth electric and also had one charcoal version in the past twenty years, so I too have a few racks (three in use, two still virgins and maybe a couple that should be tossed)

My biggest problem (my own fault) is that rain will get into the bottom pan and rust it out or kill the element
