    Not enough bandwidth on the internet to list.
    The hardware constantly smacking the side of the composite bed would drive me batshit crazy!

    Otherwise, novel idea. I can see someone getting some good use from that idea. Maybe incorporate a feature with shock cord that could secure the swinging ends?

    Funny you should mention that. The first design I was convinced I needed longer plate and a bungee cord to keep them down, but found that they don’t move much at all and that the cord just got in the way. Once I went to the short plate it was easier to use and no noise. All the test people who have used it liked the simple plate best, with no swinging/banging issues at all. However, I also realize no product works for everyone!

    Cool idea! Especially for those who might be using their straps on the daily.

    Sure! When I was a kid, both my dad and uncle raced motorcycles that were number 63, and then I raced cars as 63. The image is actually a picture of the trunk number from one of my cars. If you look on my website you’ll see one of the early ‘70s plates from the CZ 360 my dad had.

    Cool idea. I'll model that and burn one out to see how it would work. Otherwise maybe just a package deal.

    Thanks!

    I love the low profile of the Femco. If only they could make it so there’s a ring around the exterior such that you would twist it 180 degrees to open the port and allow the oil to drain straight out. Additionally, if the recessed port could accommodate a tube to allow you to direct the flow. Add a push-up release of that exterior wheel to unlock it from turning freely and it’s GAME OVER! Pull-down is likely more appropriate.
