Benny's Gen 3 Montero

Thanks!!

What sort of barrier do you use? I have two 100lb'ers myself and would also love to have a barrier to keep them from hanging over the back seat.

So far I love them. Very quiet and comfortable on highway. I had 33x10.5x15 BFG ATs before which were very noisy and had a lot of drag. The ATPs work really well in snow and rain. I haven't off-roaded with them yet, but I plan to this summer. I did take it through a really muddy pit, almost got stuck but kept going back and forth and got out. Ha ha.

This is the barrier I use. I think I got it from Walmart or PetsMart. It stops the dogs from hanging their heads over the seats and drooling over them.

It came with 3 sets of bars. But I only needed two. It use to rattle over every bump per poor design, but I added some foam to the legs inside the metal tubes to stop it from rattling. Now it's quiet.

I got that same pet barrier, It worked really well until one of my dogs realized she could move one of the bars with her head and escape into the back seat lol.

Here are some Fotos of the tires.

They are pretty aggressive. Looking for an AT.

Interesting. Thanks for the photos of the barrier! Does it put much pressure on the headliner (enough to do damage) ?

 

[Djbenny]

@All-Terrain Not that I've noticed, I have the pressure points right next to the vents where it seems to be reinforced. It hasn't done any damage to the headliner, and I have it in there pretty tight.

@jhill15 My dogs haven't done that. But I remember braking really hard once because someone pulled out in front of me while they were talking on Cell phone and my dogs went flying forward and knocked the barrier down.

Wondering if you have had a spare moment to get a photo of the two dogs loaded up in the back?

My dogs are about 100-105lbs each, hounds - hoping to have room for the both of them, with 2nd row seat in place.

Yeah sorry. I forgot to do that this weekend. I will just load them in this evening and get them excited for nothing. Ha ha. They'll be a little confused.

Good pics, thanks - and beautiful dogs. They are lovely.

What are they standing on? Looks like maybe Plexiglas? Good idea to save the interior carpet.

 

[Djbenny]

No problem. Thank you. I love them. They are great dogs. A lot of training to be as behaved as they are though.
They are actually standing on vinyl plastic. I bought the plastic by the yard from Walmart. The thickest they had, and then I just put it in the back, and traced the edges and holes for seat footings, and cut it out. Cost maybe $10. It goes all the way under the middle row seats one whole piece.

You are absolutely right. Too many poorly behaved little dogs running around. Can't afford bad habits with big dogs.

Good idea with the plastic. I appreciate the photos!!

Gotta chime in, like this little dog in the front seat of my monty who is very poorly behaved and really mad that he had to get haircut lol.
