Hey Dustin. I installed the Enclosed Trailer Transition Plate item #M368FR on a trailer here when we first got them in and you're good! That plate is single solid piece of steel. It's got a heavy duty piano style hinge that has been riveted…
Hey SC. So long as you can find an open spot on your frame or tongue and have tires 15" or smaller with a 4 or 5 lug nut pattern the Tie Down U-Bolt Spare Tire Mount w/ Brackets item #TD38FR will work. It clamps around 3" wide frames so…
Hey there Mike; both M-3 plates are built heavy duty, but they don't really have a weight rating. They use a 3/16 inch thick tread plate and come in steel #M386FR or aluminum #M348FR, fully welded with a piano hinge. They’ll take the full load of…
There isn't a specific height from the trailer floor recommended to mount the E-Track. My gut feeling is that if 3 feet is too low and 4 feet is too high then 3-1/2 feet might be perfect. Another option is to mount E-track pieces vertically along…
The Weigh Safe True Tow Weight Distribution Hitch item #WS94RR weighs 113 lbs. Surprisingly enough you do not have to account for the weight of a weight distribution system when you calculate your tongue weight. What kind of trailer do you have?
That is definitely a feature which worries me about the B&W Continuum Weight Distribution System #BW78FR. While there is not a specific measurement I can give you as the bars move up and down depending on the load placed on the bars, B&W…
In regards to the CE Smith Outboard Motor Dolly part #CE27580, the mounting board measures 16-1/8" long x 1-1/2" wide. which you can see in the photo attached below.
Yes, you can use wood screws to secure the e-tracks to the plywood walls in your trailer. However, as you mentioned the weight capacity would be less than if you were to attach them to metal beams. The tracks themselves can handle up to 2,000 lbs but…
We have a few transom saver options that would work well on your trailer but it really comes down to what would fit your setup the best and I don't have a way to look that up. We have the #315-FXH which is 27-36 inches long, part #315-FXI which…
Trailers in the United States have what is called a 2 wire system. One wire has the running lights (tail lights) for the whole trailer. The other circuit (one per side) is brake lights and turn signals. All you need to do is separate out the brake…
Standard trailer jack wheels are either plastic or metal so there isn't a rubber tire available. But we do have the Trailer Valet #STC-V211 which is both a jack and a trailer mover rated up to 500 pounds tongue. You may also be able to use mount…
Moving dollies are essential for anyone looking to transport heavy items with ease. Whether you're moving a classic car, a boat, or just rearranging your garage, these sturdy platforms make the job simple. Consider the weight capacity, wheel type, and additional features like e-track compatibility to find the perfect dolly for your needs.
Choose a dolly with a weight capacity that matches your heaviest item. For example, if you're moving a 4,600 lb dump trailer, ensure the dolly can handle that load. It's crucial for safety and efficiency, especially when working with heavy equipment or vehicles.
Metal wheels are great for smooth concrete surfaces, offering durability and strength. Rubber wheels, on the other hand, provide better maneuverability on various terrains and protect delicate surfaces like hardwood floors. Consider where you'll be using the dolly most often.
A quick and easy assembly is a big plus, especially if you're eager to start using your dolly. Many find that a straightforward setup allows them to get moving faster, whether it's for a house move or rearranging a garage. Look for dollies that come with clear instructions and necessary tools.
Features like e-track compatibility and dual locking wheels can significantly enhance a dolly's versatility. E-track systems allow for secure load locking, while locking wheels keep the dolly stable during use. These features make the dolly adaptable for various tasks and environments.
Regular maintenance, like greasing the bearings and checking for loose nuts, can extend the life of your dolly. Opt for models with durable materials and consider investing in higher-quality options that offer better build quality and longevity, even if they come at a higher price.
