Might want to tether the dog.....going to bounce around a bit

Gonna be cold for him Too

Nah.... she's pretty hardy. I just fake killed her like 8 times with some Halloween props.

012Blue is just putting ideas out there for WSI or another fabricator to make something tonneau friendly for the run

by the way, glad to see the lights are working good

The lights do look really good, thanks for all your help with the wiring.

I'm finding that the tie down straps still let the tire bounce. For the Snoball500, I think this is fine, we are not doing any high speed offroading. For the TRR, it would be unacceptable. That is why I was doing some dry runs tonight.

i was gonna do one along the tread of the tire to keep it tight to the back of the bed, and then another over the top keeping it down. that should keep it in place enough i think.

For this run, fo sho, there won't be any jumps to cause the tire to hop

Jumps in 8 ft of snow... ha ha ha cant wait to see this... Done this ride many times on a sled... Gonna be way diff in the Raptor!!!

Indeed but you never know what your are going to run into. Granted snow is usually a given but again you never know.

Plus the snow will help dampen the landing a bit.
