Yeah I think I will get one of these as well. But I am always worried with these bikes only being like 250lb a couple of people can just carry them and throw it into a truck bed.
Hauled 3 full size bikes in the ranger today. I haul 2 all the time and a friend needed a lift so we thought we would see if we could make it work. It tight and not something I would want to do super often but it works. If was going to do it again I would want to make some solid links to replace...
That's a solid idea, thanks!. I'll probably runa a chain and paddlock on the back side and just leave there so the bikes and whatever else I want to lock up. I can then just u lock around the whole chain.
They are Braap Braap type. The tailgate has to stay down since I have the 5 ft bed. I do try to back up to a brick wall or dumpster or something if its handy so they can't roll it out the back. Would have to hulk it over the side but there isn't always one available.
Okay first thing because I know people will say it. I am aware there is probably no super secure way of locking my dirtbike to the bed of the truck for any extended period of time. I am just trying to stop the opportunist thief not someone with an angle grinder and determination.
I ride solo a...
So this is what I got so far. Just laced the race net all around with paracord and tied it to the door handle and a bungie (could tie it too) on the last loose corner. Not pretty but I think it will hold well. Takes about 5 minutes to put up and 1 to take down.
A border collie mix (Breeze) and a chihuahua terrier mix (Zoey). They are seniors and don't hike as much as they used to but they still love to come out and get some shorter hikes in.
Has anyone installed window nets or grates in their rear windows. I want to put something so my dogs can sleep in the cab with the windows down while we are camping. Ideally it would be attached to the door so I could open it and get to back easily but mount to the cab would work as well.
I am...
I was showing my wife how to set up this tent so I figured I would grab a few pictures to share if anyone is thinking about getting it. Takes a little patience to get it all snug right but it's a really good fit.
Last picture shows where it's exposed to the outside. Definitely not a winter tent...
I prefer this on any vehicle but I would love to have the electronic seats that memorize your position. Which me and my wife swapping driving a lot it's a pain to try to get it back exactly how I like it. Seems like they could do electric seats with a manual override. Especially for moving the...
So I came across this rack on a truck at a dirt bike event. I think something like this would be prefect but I haven't found any commercial ones for sale.
Probably have to have it made custom.
Has anyone installed a bed rail system or aftermarket tie downs down the center of the bed.
I use my truck almost exclusively to haul my 2 dirt bikes. To tie the rear down I drop a strap down the seam between the tail gate and bed and attach it to the frame. I then run over the tire or rear...
