Transporting a .40 slab
 
I'd like to build a Mojo .40 without removable wings. Trouble is that I can't figure out how to transport
one in my step side Ranger. It won't fit in the cab, and it won't fit between the bed sides.
The only thing I can think of it to build a pvc rack that will hold the plane nose down wings parellel
to the bed sides.
Anyone have any ideas?

It should fit diagonally between the rails on the bed. I can fit one in the trunk of a Taurus. Tip-clipped ailerons help that along as well.

I switched to a minivan and love it. I can carry five profiles (2x60 size and 3x40 size) or three and enough gear to last a week at an event.

Removable wings on a 40 size are just not a great idea. Weaker and heavier.
Build it wings on and change the vehicle as necessary. Got to get your priorities straight. ;)

You will LOVE the MOJO! Def. do not build it as rem. wing-I used to stuff mine into a '91 Ford Probe in the front seat (laid back) and could even fit my Mojo 60 (orig. version) in the same spot. Hang low with a Mojo baaaaaybeeeeeeeee![8D]

Wow! A Mojo 40 won't fit? So how narrow is the bed of a step sided Ranger?
