If I had a nickel for all the trips back to the store for the right length screws when building anything I would be rich. Thanks for making us all feel better 😅🤣
Getting ready to do this. Yours looks great. Don't know the sidewall thickness in me cargo hauler. These wood walls ain't exactly thick. Been having repetitive nightmare of the wood screw gnarling its way through to the outside ! Perhaps I can figure out the depth at the top of the trailer. With the E-Track, many fasteners to distribute the load, so minimal risk of tearing out from these thin walls. As opposed to a single 2 small screw D-Ring installed.
Thanks man. No idea on the wall thickness, should be able to get a good idea by looking at the back where the door closes. Just get screws long enough to go through the 1/4 plywood walls and into the metal supports, probably 3/4 to 1 inch long
I did use this with a motorcycle (watch the moving vlog video) but I'm not familiar with that chock system. You can use a choch then tie the bike down with these. I didn't use any sort of chock, just 4 or 5 good ratchet straps
Why yes, yes it was... but it stuck good enough. And after the doors have been closed for a bit, its on there pretty good. Better than what it was and I only had a week before we needed to use it
"I have been screwing all morning long. Completely forgot to put my rubber on" LOL

Nice trailer. I just purchased one and already started doing some work on it.

Have u ever heard cut once and youre good? Lol
😅
Did you level the tracks from the floor or you leveled the trailer and then leveled the rails?
Just leveled them off the floor 👍🏼
Do you use this for motorcycles? If so, with those black fender bumpers, is it possible to get the motohq chock to work in this system?

Isn’t it a little cold for that new weatherstripping to stick?

what measurements from ground were the e tracks installed?
About 2 ft up and 5 ft up
Priorities man.
Make the trailer water tight before all your other work.
Overkill on the e track?
Everything was made water tight. Zero leaks. I've used those e tracks every time I haul something, wouldn't do it any other way
Screwing all morning long and forgot to put a rubber on? Time for Plan B
Better late than never to put your rubber on. Not as thick as you wanted it to be.😅🤣😂
😅 yea... as long as you remember in the end 😂 some rubbers you want real thick...
Anyone use E Track on their trailers??
@Regular Guy Audio dang... those are some heavy fireplaces!
