Thank you for this awesome video! It is a big help. I just have a few questions. Were did you get the CADPAT shoulder straps and waist belt? Did you ever make a video on how to attach the pack to the frame? I cant find a video showing how to attach a FILBE to the 1606 frame(what i have).

Mark have you finally uploaded the video on attaching the alice pack to the 1606 yet?

[@walterbabb4594]

Mark, did you upload the video mentioned about attaching the actual ALICE Pack to the Downeast Frame.

[@zacharybarnes6731]

What pack is that frame for I know the coyote tan frame like that is for filbe but I’ve never seen that color used or the pack it goes to

Thx for the response... have you tried the Downeast pad/strap set? I'm having trouble justifying spending that kind of cash($125 or so w/ 1606 frame), but if I hit the lotto and pull the trigger I'd be a bit pinched if they are no good.

Lottery? How about the price of a good dinner

He didn't do the back up video for attaching to Alice pack because it's almost impossible with the padded back on the shoulder straps. The padded hanger on the Alice pack will not slide over the top of the DEI frame because of the straps being in the way. I've search the web tried to research pictures and still haven't figured out how I want to go about this. any FYI would be appreciated.

[@TheHiddenWoodsmen]

[@uncatila]

my strap yoke is conected to my straps. its a molly 2 acu??????

[@83fredly]

Are these the Downeast pad and straps?

[@thespartenkid]

I have a TAS branded 1606 frame and the middle slot for the waist belt (2nd up from bottom) is horizontal not vertical, any ideas on why? I bought the yolk, waist belt and frame as a combo (all the same brand) so it has me a bit puzzled, I can't get the desired height quite right for this reason..

[@thespartenkid]

I learned WHY 😅 its to tension the hipbelt so the straps are "torqued straighter" under load, thus preventing it from slipping up a quarter of a notch!

[@yakcoffee]

This video doesnt show how to attach the bottom of the shoulder straps. how?????
