Winter Fronts

I'm thinking mine only has 4 snaps, and the are on top of the support.

I added two lower ones today. I'll have to drive around and see if it made a difference.

My W/F had no snaps installed when I received it. I put six on the top which attaches to the upper radiator support. Three on each side of the zipper. I have no snaps on the sides, but the bungee cords on the bottom which attach to the bumper brackets seem to hold it pretty taut and I havent heard any noise out of mine. I guess I need to break down and take some pix, scan 'em and enclose 'em in a post.

Hey Simm, thanks for the tip. Ive gone through three types of winter fronts and AK tent and tarp is the best Ive found. Ive got a camera so will try to get some shots of the install. If anybody is interested try the web site.
