Shipped out 2 HEMTT Cargo cover kits today to SS members on site via Fastenal. Shipping rates were great. Hope to see some pictures once they get installed. I have some more available for sale.

Best of all worlds.
You have a normal receiver hitch now
you have the best trailer of all

I like hurting my back every time I have to lift the type6 batteries out of the CUCV's for troubleshooting or changing light bulbs!!
Just swapped the front and rear battery positions which should be done yearly as the starter battery does not get the same cycles as the 12 volt system battery...
