Video Transcript for Review of Z-TRAK Truck Bed Tie Downs - Track Rails - ZT64FR

Hi everyone, Steven here with etrailer. Today we're taking a look at the Z-TRAK. It's a horizontal E-TRAK cargo rail custom fit system for lots of different year, makes, and models. So folks, this will get installed in the front of your bed, right behind the cab of your pickup truck. And as you know, truck bed tie-down points never seem to be exactly where we need them, right Especially when we're switching between bikes, tools, coolers, other gear. This Z-TRAK system will give you a much more flexible setup.

Now, again, these rails are going to be different for each vehicle. Today I'm just giving you a quick overview of what the idea of this system is. So make sure you're always on the fit guide over at etrailer.com. Enter things like your make and model. Be sure you're getting the right parts for your specific vehicle.

Now, once you get this, you're going to install it, right So you're going to have the included hardware. You may get more or less, depending on your vehicle and what's needed. And as you can see, this particular Z-TRAK has about a 2-inch offset, I believe, maybe an inch and a half. And that's what makes this custom to each different truck. So you may have some that have a 1/2-inch offset.

Some actually have all the up to like a 4-inch offset. Some of these have cutouts here in the middle of the E-TRAK itself. That way if they have like a Chevy, Ford, GM, Dodge logo, some of those trucks have that right where this gets installed and they have that cut out for that purpose. A lot of them are just missing all the things that they have to contour around for that custom fit. So again, that's why these all can look potentially different cutouts and different offsets.

So again, make sure you're checking that fit guide. Now out of the box, you're going to get all the hardware, you're going to get two of these ring tie downs. These do fit into the E-TRAK Z-TRAK, and you can simply move them wherever you need to. This whole system has been designed and is really a theme for the Z-TRAK Moto-Choks. And what that is, is that's a dirt bike, motorcycle, adventure bike, even fat tire electric bikes, tie-down system. And those are sold separately as far as the Moto-Choks. We got some that have offsets up to 12-inches. So if you're doing three bikes, you could have them bumped out so that the handlebars aren't hitting each other. This will be a great option if you're putting those bikes in the bed of your truck to where you don't have to worry about how do I hold them in place. Now when you have that wheel chocks mounted on the Z-TRAK, you can simply push it into that chock. That chock's literally going to kind of hold it in place until you get the straps on it. And then you can move the D-rings over as far as left to right as you need them to then tie down those individual bikes. And it's just going to be a great option. So if you want to turn that truck into a cleaner, more organized, a more versatile, excuse me, more versatile cargo hauling setup, the Z-TRAK, E-TRAK, track rail will give you that solid foundation. And then you can grow from there with your gear as you get and sell things and trade things out throughout your lifetime. Different bikes, different kinds of gear, and those kind of things. So again, check it out. It's all made here in the US, 12-gauge steel. It's all powder coated, has a nice finish. And as you can see, the hardware's been painted to match as well. I'm Steven, thanks for watching, and have a great day.
