Hi bud......I don’t fit the screws to fit the deck to the chassis as I’m always lifting it on/off. Once screws or fitted the rear lifts up higher

Just propped the rear up to where the screws go in.......I haven’t fitted them since I’ve owned it but gives you an idea how it sits.......I don’t want it any higher than this

Hi Buddy.....no worries. Believe it or not......to make the ratchet straps I used......cable ties for the sides, the inside of a Biro for the handle and some folded plastic for the middle plates.....then just painted them.....I’m really pleased how they turned out.
