    Use 3/8 rive nuts or drill and tap 4 1/4 in bolts or square ubolts and clamp lit together

    If the self tappers don't work in the long run. Give nutzerts a try. They were designed just for applications like yours.

    If it were me, I would not paint to match. I think the contrasting yellow looks good.

    JD, I would have moved bracket froward to the front of trailer so it was on the rail flat. Like 3” or what ever that extra raised thick piece is. That few inches wouldn’t have hurt anything and would look much cleaner. Just my thought looks like a great product and the older a guy gets the tougher things get….

    They make self tapping bolts. They hold a lot better than screws

    I thought it was a great product also give it 2-3 months and watch when it don’t go back up and if you open it there’s a good chance you take a finger off..GOOD LUCK

    I found a lot of talking and little demonstration. Neat product though so that's helpful

    That certainly makes lifting that gate easier. The building is beautiful also.
    All your hard work and great videos over the years have payed off. I've been following you since your first drill review, your trucks, trailers. Always great advice. You definitely deserve credit.

    Why not weld a flat piece of steel to the side of the lift and bolt or weld that to the top rail.

    That's a really good addition to the heavy gate on that trailer. One other potential solution to your bolt problem could have been rivet nuts. They make them to work with material up to half inch thick. They're pretty solid fasteners perfect for blind holes like your fully-boxed rail trailer. My F150 has a couple Rivet nuts in it to repair threads in my tailgate access panel. I have a few in the interior to secure cameras to the headliner.

    That’s a very heavy duty trailer for a 14ft. What could you possibly put on there that would max it?

    As a hind sight kind of situation, i would've mounted the rails a few inches farther forward. That was they aren't sitting ontop of those cap plates creating a gap underneath the end. And then the self drilling screws would've only had to go through the box tubing. Probably not an issue the way you did it more so just a preference.

    • @BigTruckBigRV
      @BigTruckBigRV  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thought about that, the problem would have been the cables rubbing against the rail and damage them. It needs to sit right on the back edge.

    Maybe some type of HD C clamp would have worked towards the back by the gate
