I have the large also and agree. I can rest the nose on the tailgate of my truck and lift it from the back like a seesaw. Also fits 2 Fallow Does in problem. Theses sled really have been a game changer as allowed me to head into spots I wouldn’t have gone as couldn’t drag that sort of longer distance. The sled makes it effortless specially in frost. Just wish I ordered the wear runners when I bought it last year

I was fortunate enough to pick up a Jet Sled JR at the gamefair some years ago for only £25. I've never had a problem with flexibility but I've never abused it either realising that it's far less durable than the heavy duty sleds/tubs that you can buy from Europe. The only alteration that I have made to mine is fitting a timber batten to spread the bearing load from the drag rope (preventative measure only). Mine also doubles up as a carcass tray and fits the car and fitted in my Suzuki Jimny just fine.
I use mine for fallow and I consider it to be one of the best bits of stalking kit that I have ever purchased.
P.S. It's also doubled up as a sled for my granddaughter to use in the snow and to drag/carry logs over the lawn.

The covers Barry @Stirlinggundogs sells are first class, they last 100 plus deer a year for me, only wear on the knobbly wheels on the Glade Deer Mgt trailer when full
Here are the details sizes in old money.... photos on the website Jet Sled 1.
If you have a dog box/ drawers in your pickup then yes you will need to measure before purchase but if not then Ive not had any reports JS1 wont fit lengthways...
Sizes in inches:
Jet Sled Jr : 43 x 21 x 8
Jet Sled 1 : 54 x 25 x 10

Same here, Hilux
Good to know about the length as I have just ordered a large sled in black. Would have looked a bit silly on the roof rack with a fallow inside.
Here’s the jetsled1 against the ottersled. Not much in them quality wise. I’ve had 2 big fallow bucks in the jetsled. Easy to load by putting one end on the tailgate and lifting the other end up and in. Covers by deertraycovers.co.uk

Thank you for the photos and write up, always good to have an end user view! you should be on commission ha,ha….
Sled ordered on Easter Monday and delivered this morning which is pretty quick. The office called me to ask why I have ordered a boat so I am guessing it will be big enough!
@SussexSteve Random, how do you find the 12v system in the back ? I’ve seen similar on Temu /amazon and have been tempted , decent amount of pressure or does it just dribble out?
I have had one of those for years, bought at a Game Fair where Karcher were doing a dog “cool down” service but it doesn’t get used as it always leaks. Great idea but………
