Expert Reply:

We have a couple options that will work for your Wells Cargo trailer.

The first rack I recommend is the Rack'em Fitz-All Enclosed Trailer Ladder Rack, part # RA-28. This rack has a telescoping design and will fit trailers from 4 ft to 8-1/2 ft wide. It has a 400 lb weight capacity and is made of heavy duty aluminum.

The second rack that would work for you is the Pack'Em Ladder Rack Bracket Kit for Enclosed Trailers, part # PK-28B. This is a ladder rack you can create using either 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 pressurized lumber to make the size rack you need. This ladder rack has a 200-lb overall weight capacity.

Both of these racks require a rain gutter on the trailer. I have attached a couple links to videos you can check out for these products.

With the PK-28B it says it has a weight capacity of 200 overall. Is this the dynamic weight or static weight? I am looking to install a roof top tent on my 5x8 Wells Cargo trailer. The tent only weighs around 150 lbs but will obviously have more weight with sleeping campers in it.

The 200 pound weight capacity listed for the Pack'em Ladder Rack Brackets # PK-28B refers to its dynamic capacity - the amount it can safely support while actually traveling down the road.
