Window net mounting

Post by HANCOCK »

Hi, I’m going to do some comps this year so I need to get some window nets mounted. I am interested in going in tuff truck and have read in the rules that they are no longer allowed to be on the door but on the cab. So just after some advice on how to go about it as I have no internal roll bars? Any suggestions and pic’s would be great keeping in mind they need to be fast and easy to secure.

Thanks Hancock

Do you mind drilling holes? You might be able to use the presstuds that you can rivet into the body?

That's about right. There is no worry's modifying the cab to suit, holes or brackets whatever just need something practical ;) Its a FJ73 ute.

I mean it has not got an internal roll cage but will have a full exo cage built. As here is no room or need for an internal one if the exo is built properly. ;)
