Cargo Barriers?

[SuRrEaLNJ]

Anybody running a cargo barrier in their x?

I have alot of stuff in there to begin with, and when its loaded for a trip im generally over packed. I find that i fear where everything is gonna wind up if i ever go over more then the thought of actually going over

anyone have any input?

Are you talking about a cage? like for a dog ?

they make dog barriers that could be fit in the back,

or contact your local law enforcement , they did use the custom dog gates in Explorers,
maybe they have an old one laying around they don't use any more, ,

looking for something more like a cargo net or something. I want to keep that heavy tool box and other loose stuff in the back where it belongs if I ever go over I have everything bungied so it dosnt shift much, but I carry alot of stuff in my rig and if I ever roll I have serious lethal projectile potential back there

I know there was a vendor on this site way back when for them but their sites down

Maybe one of those cargo nets you see for the bed of pick ups?

How'd you go about mounting the D-rings to the roof? I'd like something like that in my Ex.

1/4 inch self tapping screws about 1/2 long set in the C pillar,you have to be careful they are not too long or they will go thru the roof.The D ring setup I got at Lowes or Home Depot.

I am not running a cargo barrier but know its only useful when there is frequent deliveries of cargo....otherwise a temporary barrier is good option which can be attached and removed according to the use......

the d rings look good, idk about the seatbelt attachment part lol

That's the way they make it,the only other choice would be to try and set a D ring in the pillar.

i just wish it was cheaper...

I swear I don't think I paid that much for the one I have,I will have to look when I get home in a week or so but I thought I paid in the $120 range.Here is a link to another style made in Australia.http://www.milfordind.com.au/shop/?...&category_id=bb7d5f4717d905b1599a398cb5587302 I have sent them an inquiry to see what the price is shipped to the US,I had a silk sleeping bag liner made in NZ and it was cheaper shipped here then what I could buy here so you never know.

Ouch...$500 shipped to the US.
