    Before you start bungeeing down the tarp pick your lowest d ring row and stretch it TIGHT front to back AA1C1E05-3CE0-483D-AA2B-E0B7DE62F643.jpeg with a bungee. That’s typically why tarps bulge out, they are loose front to back. That’s my secret to tight tarps jobs.

    Also every d ring gets its own bungee down through the rubrail and stretched as tight as possible. I rarely do the “v” bungee method of hooking both ends to a different d ring.

    Sometimes I drop me seat down so my shifter seams longer, but then my visor is short. #Struggles

    Pay good money for a ladder rated at 300lbs or more.
    They are much more stable
