- nomadictxnExplorerBedlam, Going to miss picture of your older rig. That was a sharp ensemble. Congrats on the new "Beast" and Happy Camping!
Regards, DT - BedlamModeratorCheck out the TruckCamperForums for more pictures and detail. This trip is using the short range FastGuns to hold the TC on 3/4" stall mats over diamond plate. I want to see if there is any creep or if I need to box in a front support. I had no issues with the TC moving on a thin DeeZee mat in my Ford even if I left a little space between the front bumpers and forward bed wall.

That setup looks really nice Pete.
Do you have a close up photo of how you are preventing the TC from shifting forward or sideways on the flat bed or do you think the fastguns will be enough. - gdavidgExplorerwinterized it.
