Although we cannot guarantee that it will fit on your truck, we have had customers fit the Car Hammock Sedan on double cab size trucks.

The Car Hammock XL is the best solution.  With an open rail system you shouldn't have any anchoring issues.

The Car Hammock XL is still going to work but the anchoring system is a bit trickier.  Please email info@carhammock.com with questions.

Sorry, due to the mechanics of 2-Door sedans and the laws of physics, we cannot offer a product that fits on 2-Door sedans. . . . but we are working on it.

Although we cannot guarantee fit on the millions of vehicle types out there, our customers have found ways to make a Car Hammock fit on vans, minivans, jeeps, and even outside of vehicles.

Incompatible Features

Flush Hoods

Poorly Reclining Seats

Flush Hoods

image105

Pictured you will see the hood hook that needs to fit into the hood for the Car Hammock Sedan to function.  Some vehicles have flush hoods that do not have a large enough gap to fit the hook into.

Bug Shields

Poorly Reclining Seats

Flush Hoods

Bug shields pose a similar problem to flush hoods.  If a bug shield exists then the hood hooks will not be able to attach with the Car Hammock Sedan.

Poorly Reclining Seats

Poorly Reclining Seats

Some vehicles have seats that do not recline very far.  If you have one of these vehicles you will risk having your butt hit those seats while resting.

Wired Headrests

Wired Headrests

Poorly Reclining Seats

Some vehicles have automatic headrests and therefore are not easily removed.  If your vehicle has these, and especially accompanied by poorly reclining headrests, then you may end up resting with your back on the headrests.


Affects Car Hammock Sedan

Short Cars

Wired Headrests

Miscellaneous

The distance between pillar A and pillar C cannot be too short or the hammock will sag to an uncomfortable level.  Measuring from the front door jamb, halfway up the windshield, to the rear door jamb.  If that measurement is shorter than 5.5 feet, you may have an issue.

There are so many makes and models of vehicles with varying features that it is impossible for us to confirm compatibility on everything.  If you have a specific question, please email us and we will do our best to answer.
