Hell of a Mess! So glad my '02 Arctic Cat 300 came with Disc Brakes & Mechanical Ebrake ! As it was, parts were easy to get which I was surprised to find out ! Very thorough posting .Thanks!
Yes, ALWAYS !! just at the Attachment areas where the Ubolts ,etc.? hold it down to the Rack , to provide a Vibration Isolator gap between the Rack & the Moose Cargo box! So it won't cause any rattles ,vibration. etc.
I recently bought another Ruger 10/22 like I had many years ago when they first came out, not anywhere near the quality of the origonal but functions fine. I also hunted Squirrels, Rabbits.,etc. It cost 4 times More than I paid way back then buts it's Fun to shoot!
From the Left side: Put your Left Foot on the Floorboard ,then step up, extend your Right Leg Across the seat then slide across until you're sitting down ! I rode a Full-size Honda Goldwing, Fully loaded with Side Hard Bags ,Rear Back rest & Arm Rests. Easy to get On/Off this way!!
