Looking for an IN Jeep Hammock

Hi everyone,

I once came across a hammock on the interenet that was set up inside the jeep between the A post(roll bar meets wind shield) diagonal to the rear roll bar. Has anyone ever seen this???

I've seen those before but I can't remember where either. I think it may have been ebay.

I have a morning ritual that I need to share. I call it "the terminator". First I crouch down in the shower in the classic "naked terminator traveling through time" pose. With my eyes closed I crouch there for a minute, visualizing either Arnold or the guy from the second movie (not the chick in the third one because that one sucked) and I start to hum the terminator theme. Then I slowly rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me to proceed through my day as an emotionless, cyborg badass. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It ruins the fantasy.

I saw that a couple of years ago (also likely on ebay) and I havent been able to find it since, I guess the idea was a flop

Interesting Idea, but I don't think it would have much sag for comfort.

From what it looks like, it looks as if you can adjust the tension somewhat.
I am probably going to buy one, and just tie one end off on a tree, and keep the other one on the Jeep. What I mean is if I tie into the A post passenger side, then I will hook up to a tree out the drivers back end, vice versa.

We will see how this works. Updates to come.

I was looking at my XJ last night (2 door). How would you attach it to the front pillar?
