Raingler Liberty Net

Raingler Net Installation for Liberty's by Mike Reedy 2/15/03
I spent a couple weeks bouncing back and forth through email with Eddie at Raingler.com asking about a net for the KJ. He didn't have one made yet, but asked if I could get him some measurements. I took down the measurements and sent them to him. Once I ordered the net, it took 2 days to get to my house in TX. Construction is Absolute quality. Very strong with good seam stitching throughout.
Strung out on the floor there were 3 pieces. The two separate straps I am told go down to the seat pivot positions (pictured below). I took a little creative licensing and put them elsewhere for my needs.
First order of business was to cut out the openings in my Husky Floor liner. I had been meaning to do this anyway so I could access the tie downs on the floor. So with a Utility knife, I started cutting out the already present indentations.
This view shows the placement of the Factory floor tie downs.
This is the right side point where the extra strap comes around.
This is the left side point where the extra strap comes around.
Like I said, I took a little creative licensing and utilized the seat back tie points instead of the floor points under the seat. The Floor liner doesn't give you as straight a shot as I like and I didn't want to deform how the floor liner fit. Of course with the seats down, I would have to find alternative points, but for a majority of what I need the net for, this will do great.
To load your cargo, I took loose the rear straps and loosened the front ones. I laid the net over the back of the seat and loaded what I needed. The yellow points are possible other points I would consider connecting the strap to. I wish there was something along the back side wall at about the same height.
I work for a Construction company and haul computers all over the place to various jobsites. This net is the ONLY thing available. Dealerships and everyone else has those flimsy stretchy nets that are called 'V' nets which only help you out holding stuff like jackets and the like. If you have something with alot of mass to hold down, you need something stout like the Raingler net. Once it is strapped down and tightened, my cargo can't move at all. I can't even push on it to get it to move unless I loosen some straps. Perfect for that bumpy ride over the construction site to the job trailer and also perfect for wheelin'.
Quality construction and Quality materials. That is all you have to say about Raingler Nets. They will hold down your stuff protecting it and your vehicle at the same time. Not to mention back seat passengers. Eddie has a great product with the Raingler series of Nets. He also has other products as well. Check out his website linked below. He'll also make you a custom net to your specifications.
