    Little info. Keep in mind the wheels on the toolbox. Ratcheting them down will make them warp fairly quickly. Putting that much stress on them. Especially when hitting bumps and whatnot while driving. I had to reinforce the bottom where the casters mount for a better weight distribution and go to a all-steel caster. Where there is give, it will get exploited by the slightest movement. You could also add spacers to the back of the tool box and create a mounting point to the wall behind it. Will alleviate a lot of stress needed downwards. Hope that helps. Love the channel and don't miss a vid. 😊

      I'm fairly sure the point is for the box to be mobile. Can't happen if the box is mounted without wheels. Pretty sure the aim for it to not be permanently mounted is to put it where they need it at an event and have it hop to the bus as necessary. That's why all the bus tools left the bus and ended up in the box in the first place.

    Hey this is a cool racing trailer! I'm new here and I live up the street from someone with a similar but older Edge racing hauler behind a Suburban. Parked beside the garage or out front at the curb just like you, same type of jack, weight distributing hitch but one difference the side door is way back near the axles instead of the front corner. It passed me one time on my dashcam (a posted outtake), probably for a similar type of racing weekend and well that's pretty much how I'm here now watching your videos on enclosed haulers. This bumper-pull configuration would seem to be working better for you than the gooseneck version so far! Now you can make tight turns without damaging the cab. I'm loving it, I just wanna point out the safety chains must be crossed when it's time to hit the road

    Lista USA supplied all of the toolboxes we strapped to pallets that hit the road with us while I was in the Air Force. Those plastic cheap caster wheels are going to break in the first couple pot holes. Even just replacing the casters with high endurance casters from lista and reinforcing the bottom of the tool box will help till you can buy a proper tool box that can be strapped down. Also that toolbox will likely fall forward without anything holding to the wall, because of the single track instead of double.

    • @commonsenseisdeadin2024
      @commonsenseisdeadin2024 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      He explained in the video the reason that he did the 2 to 1 attachment points.... It's not going to fall forward!
      If you're whipping around your trailer to the extent of causing a cart to fall forward, the method of how it was secured down IS NOT the issue!
      The 'foot pads" of US general boxes are actually pretty beefy. I don't think the casters will experience enough force to fail.... I'm not sure your experience with trailers and having loaded tool boxes, things inside of cabinets or the like but everytime you reach your destination, the shit is not in complete disarray! (Again unless that's untrue for you, the method of how said storage is attached IS NOT the issue!)
      This is one of those things that, ON PAPER makes sense but IN PRACTICE just isn't the case!
      All that said, it does sound like you have indeed experienced in practice..... HOWEVER I'm betting that said experience in practice was not in an enclosed trailer being towed behind a light duty truck and the contents were also much much heavier...... Would I lose?

  • @Odins-Dad

    Hey Taylor, ever think about getting a truck bed fuel tank like they do on construction sites to fuel equipment? They are pretty unobtrusive, and have a dedicated pump to make filling up the drift cars much easier. Or maybe an undermount fuel tank on the trailer? Or an undermount fuel tank on the dodge? ..... Or maybe fab one up out of aluminum that you could move between the bus and truck just for a fun aluminum project? Maybe it's overkill, but it seems easier to use, and takes up less space than a bunch of jugs.

    Taylor
    Balance your trailer tires.
    They’re spinning just as fast as your truck tires ( faster if they’re smaller). That vibration will cause them to fail prematurely. Same for beating up the hubs on your trailer
    Either use wheel weights, or some balancing media.
    Since I’ve started doing this, my tire failure rate has gone to nearly zero. I either wear them out, or my infrequent use trailer might weather the tires before I replace them.

Also I found an adjustable wrench that is actually good. its a locking adjustable basiclly you adjust down to the size you need and then lock it like locking pliers and it makes a world of a difference. the airline track is what they use for seat rails (they are titanium on the aircraft i worked on)

      I'd agree HOWEVER with 14ply and his load capacity, I doubt he'd ever have 2 go. If he did have a situation where BOTH are punctured at the same time, either A. Tires are likely not what he will need to worry about (2 tires going at the same time would likely be the result of further extensive damages! The first tire will usually "save" the other to the rear if hitting something in the road.) and B. You can drive on one tire down (obviously slower) to make it to a shop to get the others fixed! You're SUPPOSED to (and should) install the spare and immediately go to get the bad tire repaired/replaced. (Which of course many don't and I bet your situation is the same as the following..) you had one blow, then continuing along and the other blew later on... That's extremely common, and is EXACTLY why you should get the bad tire sorted immediately after changing the spare! (You should also rotate your spare in much more frequently (again which commonly people don't! Hell I bet most people never rotate their trailer tires at all!) because a spare with brand new tread being thrown on (typically when someone has a trailer tire failure, the tires are no where near "new" and if the load is substantial, the spare tire may get over loaded because of the greater diameter and cause they to fail in short time!

Although the track will fracture before the fitting, caution should be taken for the manner in which they hold something. Just say'n.

    I highly recommend the predator 3500 inverter generator. I go to and vend at about 20 shows/events a year. Is say that 75% or better of the vendors I see are running predator inverter generators. You can get a great remote start kit for them too.

    As an electrician. The “better for the house” cord” is what you should have used for your feed to the trailer. An 8AWG 3 conductor cable is what you want. Maybe a minimum of a 10AWG.

    Tire speed rating is likely a huge factor in the blowouts . Not only are a lot of those standard 10 ply tires usually the cheapest variant they can get, but their speed rating is often like 60-65mph.

    Ditch the generator all together and go with some LiPo4 batteries, 4 decent panels on the roof, and an all in one inverter. Silence with unlimited track power and AC is the way to go.

    So there are a couple of ways you can really make that air conditioner efficient. For one, If it can be run From truck power While on the road You can start it About 30 minutes before you get your destination and let it get a head start. The other way would be to use 1 of those plastic Milwaukee squirrel cage style fans which I'm sure you have for cooling off Your cars For when you're in the pit or in a non moving condition you take it up there and set it to where it Pushes air across the condenser coil. The condenser coil is essentially just a radiator And it's not gonna work right if you don't have air flowing across the coil just like in your home air conditioner the condenser has it's own fan to make sure that it can generate air flow even sitting in a little side yd or a closed off area beside your house. The same For the trailer have some air moving across it when you're sitting And things like that if you can provide some air across it because it's not gonna have a dedicated fan For the condenser It will Really make it run a whole lot More efficiently, a lot more effectively. Just some thoughts from an old AC guy.

    Mount the jugs on the walls. Get the skinny wall racks for all the consumables(brake clean, cleaning supplies, etc), get a big push broom and a small broom as well. Would something like a Dirtcar hydraulic lifts be feasible with your drift cars?

    All jokes aside, I'm really liking your train of thought with your organizational modifications on the trailer. It's looking sick, and that airline track is a prime choice. So clean and simple. I think I actually prefer it over the traditional track. At least, aesthetically. Nicely done.

    Need to get you the long reach Milwaukee 1/4 and 3/8 drive ratchets. I'm a GM tech by trade, I use the absolute shit out of them. I have a normal size 3/8 drive that has been used maybe twice in 2 years. The long reach ones you'd think are harder to get into places, which is occasionally the case, but they are a life saver so many times.

    Hinesight 20/20 but a solid upgrade would have been to install TPMS into the trailer tires, so you could see the tire pressure and tire temperature, so you can also prevent a blowout.

  • @alexgaskin8375

    Oh to have a ‘simple’ tool box like that. I work on Historic racing cars, Let’s take a Cooper T23 with a Bristol Engine and drivetrain for example. Starting with the carbs, a mixture of BA and Whitworth nuts and bolts, bell housing, all Whitworth, Suspension is all AF/Imperial, more modern stuff like the fuel pump is Metric… 2 sets of each spanner type means 8 sets of spanners in total (BA is only small so not too bad), then you have sockets for all sizes, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, Imperials and metrics, then Whitworth in 3/8. Don’t get me started on the threads, UNF/UNC/BSF/Metric, then you have Imperial and Whitworth both using the same fractions for sizes, but being completely different sizes!

    just so you know, because you used a 15 amp plug and wire to run the AC unit it will not last as long maybe up to 5 years since you won't be using it often but it will significantly improve the life of your ac unit just by using the 30 amp plug in and appropriate wire size.

    E-track for mounting down the cars. Then use the light weight air track for mounting down the other stuff.
    There are many things I don't understand about the US. Cheap trailer tires and the 45 different standards for electrical plugs being a couple of them.
    Edit: For straps, you could put them in small tool bags / boxes. Then they're easy to grab and you can sort them by size.
