Question:

Looking to outfit my 15foot utility trailer with e-rails and car tie down straps. My vehicle weighs around 6500lbs, what products would work with this setup and the e-rails? if I got to of the EM58523-09162 would that work in controlling the weight of my vehicle? If not, what products works well with larger vehicles such as SUVs and Trucks?

For securing a vehicle to a trailer the Erickson E-Track Tie-Down Kit w/ Ratchet Straps # EM58523-09162 that you referenced is a great choice. It's very easy to use and works well. It also gives flexibility in how the vehicle will attach to the floor since the different slots can easily be selected. It will require you to install E-tracks on the floor of you trailer though like the # EM19147 for 4 foot long sections. For a backing plate to install on the bottom of the trailer we have the part # e96RR which will work as well.
