Jake this is how the latch on our wood hauler latches, it's been great so far.



Picture one is latched, pic two is unlatched but with the bed down, pic three is with the bed up some and the arrows point to the area the latch goes over to keep it down and pic four is latched back up.


The Beech and Sugar Maple really test the strength of the latch when it is fully loaded.

Interesting . . . a much different latch design compared to my buddy's wago that is similar.
