Height of cargo bows above bed in M35A2

[wiggall]

How high should the cargo bows be, from bed to top of the bows at highest point?

Thanks for the help!

The uprights are 45" and go from floor to botom section of corners. I think the corner uses about 4" of the upright and rises about 8". the bows have about a 7" arc, so, the bed to the top of bow is about 56" which puts us at about what Gerhardt said..........60". He is always right, wish I was. JT

What are the 69" uprights for?
Just found out I have a tall set of uprights that make my bows 84" off the bed floor

Normal size people!

Those would be awesome!

I thought it was cool until I saw how the cargo cover fit...
I'll be cutting 2ft off of them today.

Also having a 13ft tall truck may pose a problem in some areas.

Good point.

A few years ago I picked up some cargo covers from Ft Sill. A few of them had been modified for taller uprights. They added a foot or foot and half to the bottom edges (I don't recall the exact measurement)

Decide if you like the extended height before you cut your uprights. A canvas shop for boats can make tarp extensions for you.

It wouldn't be any taller than an m109.

 

[Lonnie]

Too late.

I have a bunch of 2ft extra pieces now.

I just took mine and raised them 20" for parades.

Do you still have these?

And you can order ones to almost any length from "Stefan Wood Products", but only in fiberglass. Tell them what length you want and that's what you will get.
