E-tracks are typically the stronger of the two, but X-track is more versatile since you can mount them horizontally or vertically. Choosing between the two really depends upon how you plan to use them. If you are installing something in a truck bed,…
Hey Randy. That answer completely depends on how much clearance you have on the sides of your windows and what size window or windows you have. There's no set distance I can tell you to go off of. The RainBlade RV Rain Deflector and Sun Visor…
We do have a nice selection of bungee cords and tie-down straps, if you already have a spot where you can anchor them. Personally, I prefer tie-down straps with ratchets. For example, the Erickson Ratchet Tie-Down Straps w Flat Hooks - 2" x…
Since the slot dimensions and capacity of different brands of E-Track are identical, really the only differences are the finish and the lengths the tracks are sold in. If you're using the E-Track in an area where aesthetics are important, you can…
Hey Bob! The Big Truck Big RV Tongue Weight Scale for Trailers - 2,000 lbs #BTBRV49FR works with standard 1-7/8", 2", and 2-5/16" ball couplers. Simply lower the trailer coupler onto the scale and read the tongue weight directly from…
Hey Moses! With that GVWR you either have the 2026 Grand Design Imagine 2670MK or the 2800BH. The correct rating for a weight distribution hitch (WDH) depends on your tongue weight. It looks like the dry tongue weight for the 2670MK is 785 lbs and…
On an 4 foot long section of E-track #EM19147 and 2 screws every 16 inches that is a total of 6 screws in the aluminum frame. This most likely will not get you near the capacity of the E-track. I recommend bolting through the aluminum frame so that…
Since you have wooden floors in your trailer the hardware I would recommend for installing e-track like the part #EM19147 would be the Erickson Hardware kit part #SL49FR which is basically wood screws.
Hey Darryl, thanks for reaching out. That's probably because we don't have a video that shows that. We do mostly trailer/RV work, and we don't see many box trucks here at our shop. I can still provide some general instructions for you…
It sure does Steve! Our 3,500 lbs etrailer Electric Trailer Jack w/ Tongue Weight Scale item #e43KV also comes in a 5,000 lbs capacity. We have two different options depending on how you want to power it that I have listed below: Wired to Trailer -…
Hey Gary, thanks for the information! The etrailer Horizontal E Track item #e85VR would be a great way to add additional anchor points. You can bolt these tracks directly to your trailer's deck using self-drilling metal screws like item #SL99FR.…
For your Aluma 6810 HBT trailer, I recommend the Erickson Horizontal E-Track - Zinc Coated Steel - 2,000 lbs - 5' Long - Qty 1 #E19148 along with the E-Track Backing Plate - Zinc Plated Steel - 6" Long x 6" Wide #e96RR. This will save…

E Track: Versatile Cargo Management System
E Track systems are a versatile solution for securing cargo in trailers, trucks, and more. They offer flexibility with adjustable attachments, making them ideal for various load sizes and types. Consider the installation surface and weight capacity to maximize their utility.
Install E Track on a sturdy surface like trailer framing for maximum weight capacity. If using plywood, ensure it's thick enough to support your needs. Recessing tracks can prevent tripping hazards and enhance safety. Adjustable and removable features make it easy to customize your setup.
E Track is compatible with a variety of accessories like D-rings, hooks, and straps. These can secure anything from tools to large cargo. Versatile fittings accept carabiner clips, bungee cords, and ratchet straps, providing optimal load security and flexibility for different hauling needs.
Absolutely! E Track is not just for cargo. It's great for organizing tools in landscape trucks or securing items in boats. Its adaptability allows for creative uses, like holding backpacks in lawn spray trucks or even securing longer items on open tailgates.
Consider your specific needs and the space available. E Track can be cut to fit, but ensure you measure accurately. Some users have noted slight discrepancies in length, so double-check before installation. Excess track can be repurposed for other areas.
E Track is designed to handle a variety of loads, from light tools to heavy cargo. Its strength and durability make it reliable for long-term use. Ensure you choose the right attachments for your specific load to maintain security and stability during transport.
