I have my m1009 up for sale right now so couldn't commit to it. Hopefully it'll be gone but if last minute is ok, I'm a maybe.

I used industrial 4" wide velcro and mounted it just in front of the 4x4 shifter. This allows me to remove it and store is safely inside the hosue when needed.

Can't wait to see the after pics!

98G, any info on that carrier? I like the looks of it.
