Cargo cover question

[BenRoberts]

I'm just curious on what the straps inside the cover hook to. I'm sure I got it all screwed up cover needs work but I'm sure I'll get all the holes patched

So you can roll up the sides.

 

[BenRoberts]

I was way wrong

Yep, roll up the sides and use those straps to keep them up.

 

[BenRoberts]

Few of them have broken ends. I got hosed on the cover. I won't disclose who I got it from until I find out if he's going to make it right

I think those straps are seperate short pieces that attach with a single screw into the bow corner? They make look broken but loop back on themselves? Can probably just get a few replacements if need be? I have yet to roll mine up on the sides, but heard it may be easier to do using a long piece of PVC tube.

I'd only roll it up to have people in it for the parades. I like the PVC idea. I'd be afraid the one I have will fall apart when I try. I got serious patching to do

There are 2 ways to roll up a cover. Some like GMA have their own straps sewn in to the cover and you can roll them up with those. Roll to the inside so it does not retain water/leaves & dirt. (don't ask me how I know)

Some of the older covers used straps attached to the bow corners with its own hook and cinch buckle.

new question about cargo covers. Since the company I went to today for material to patch my cover shafted me by not being open during advertised hours I wont go back so im looking for someone that may have a 3 color camo cover thats in very poor shape that would be willing to sell me a section to patch holes in cover. Open for other suggestions as well. Thanks guys

What size patch do you need?

What size patch do you need?

Well it's got about 5 golf ball size holes and about 3 18" rips so a decent size square that I could cut on an make patches out of.

Chief had adhesive backed patch rolls that would work for what you are trying to do at the GA rally.
Contact the vendor on this post.

Anyone attempted to install a M1083 Cover Fitted Vehicular to a M925? The cover on M925 snowplow is getting pretty back condition. The dimensions of the bed close enough?
