Cargo cover installation

Just recently had time to mess with this truck.


I'm certainly not an expert on deuces but, I do believe they put the cargo cover on backwards!


I got a new lower radiator hose and did not expect changing that lil bugger would be so difficult

Yes, in Image 6 it does look like those 'intake flaps' ought to be in front.

Nice looking truck, great buy!

Looking at the photo above, it does not look like it is backward. The front flap should have some nylon straps and the back should have four rubber loops. The flaps should wrap so that the openings are to the rear. The front flap folds around from to the side while the side folds to the front under the flap. The sides should fold around the rear flap while the rear flap folds around the side under the side. If this is not done it will be obvious as the corners will look jacked up. If you push them the way they are not intended they will not sit right.

Also, the vents should be both front and rear so this will not tell you anything. Sorry to differ Hulk.

I agree with Chuck. Also, there should be the word 'FRONT' labeled on one end on the inside.

Here's a couple close up shots,

Yep, now those pics show it on backwards. That will be a fun top to rotate.
Have you been driving it much Bob? How do you like it?

A W/W TRUCK with a hard top, cover, and a step on the bumper. GOOD JOB The W/W TRUCK that I got from Ft. Lewis. Wa. had no cover, or bumper step, so I backed of the winch, and let the chain hang down a little, so I now have a step At 61 1/2 it not as easy to climb up there as a 20 year old to check the oil.

The new pictures look like it is backward.
