I actually mounted them last night, but am not sure I like the brackets I made. they have a little more movement than I like. Once I run a pipe from my Mufflers to the outlets it may stiffen it all up a bit. Hopefully I will get to that this week. i feel kinda lame with the pipes on there and still blowing the exhaust out the tailpipes in back. hahahaha

Gotta ask, can you roll with the windows down, or does sand go EVERYWHERE?

Nope, the sand stays put. It's got a 3-inch high wall and the rear benches to keep it from sliding around. Everyone I mentioned using sand instead of sand colored shag carpet to told me not to do it because it would blow around. I was determined to make it work, so before pouring all 800 pounds of it in, I dumped a few bags on the floor and drove it down the highway. There just isn't enough airflow even at 70+ miles per hour to blow it around or create any dust :-) I have an insulated and wood subfloor to keep the sand from laying directly on the metal so metal corrosion from the sand is mitigated...I Hope.

The neighbors thought I was crazy when they saw me dumping the rest of the sand in the van LMAO. Now they love it.
