Default Safari Straps

I am looking to order the safari straps extended window set. Im not sure if i like the original 1" straps of the new 2" warrior straps. Any pro/cons of either one. I have heard good things about safari straps just looking for opinions about the two different styles.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I know this doesn't answer your question completely, but it's quite easy to make those on your own. Go to usacargocontrol.com and look at their 2 inch cargo webbing.

I ordered a 100 yard roll for $100 and made an entire cargo net out of 12,000lb webbing. It was enough for the entire top, side windows, back, a pet divider, 4 grab handles, 6 tie-downs, and 2 tow straps. I still have some left over.

Anywho, a cargo net on a Jeep is VERY helpful, whether you make it or buy it. The 1 inch looks dinky and slightly weak. Go for 2 inch no matter where you get it.

Hope this helps.

Go for the 2" if you decide to buy. stronger and provides more theft protection if nothing else. I use it to strap my gear to, on the top and sides.

Bigger is better. You will be happier with the 2" Warrior Net.

I have the two inch on my TJ, looks a lot better. And as someone else said, holds a lot more stuff on top of it.

2" warrior is the way to go. Stronger, harder for someone to pull stuff out of your jeep, and looks great.

2" warrior net for sure. The 1" is just plain anemic.
