Your picture is all white, open space, except the top righ corner.

ok, I see how you did it. This clears it up. Did you see my quick drawing? I think I am on the same track that you are talking about. I think I am going put some etracks on the wall too (for other purposes, not bike).

the angle iron used under, did you weld it on to the trailer frame? or just use a small section to bolt the other side to.

I didn't think I would have to go all the way up. I was going to have tool boxes and gear in the front. I guess I can go all the way...

this is why I ask the questions!

figment · 11-01-2004, 4:04 PM

the tie-downs are going to be pulling forward of the bike. run the etrack all the way up.

ConqSoft · 11-01-2004, 4:09 PM

You should be fine running them like you described. I did that on the 6x12 that I had (bubba has it now), because I used the forward area for storage. There was still plenty of room to tie the bikes down, and still have them pulled forward. I think I did 8ft sections of e-track, and left 4ft open at the front.

Here's mine...fwiw...

ok...and these will be the chocks? this is kinda what I am thinking. Thanks everyone for holding my hand. I am kinda cautious when it comes to bolting bikes down for the first time in a trailer!

nice! That is pretty much the vision I had in my mind.

Baketech · 11-01-2004, 4:13 PM

Imho, it works best to stagger the chock next to the door....easier to get inside and work the tie downs....

I just saw that, you are right...more room on the bars and what not.

Thanks guys!

bubba has pics of it in his gallery. I used smaller sections of e-track, and not the 8ft pieces like I thought.

I had chock mounts on each side, and in the center.

That is a nice setup. I like the small wall too, exactly what I was thinking of doing. I think I might need to buy a white or red fireblades.org sticker too!

Also, there was a Craftsman toolbox mounted where the molding is on the floor at the front left.

. What did you put the T's down for, protection on the chocks? or is that part of the kit?

To protect the tiles from the bases of the Pit-Bull chocks, and also from the tires of the bikes.

I like that. you guys are pretty handy! I hate being in the middle of no place...maybe home depo has strips like that.

They are made to go on doors, where you put your hand to push open a spring-loaded door.
