Mounting Pack'Em Rack # PK-6-OP1 to Trailer Side Panel

Question:

Hello, Can the PK-6-OPI be mounted to the side panel of a trailer? I have a 6.5 by 10 trailer with side panels. Thanks.

It sounds like your trailer is equipped with side wooden panels where the frame rails aren't readily accessible from the inside. I spoke with my contact at Pack'Em regarding mounting the # PK-6-OP1 rack that you referenced directly to the panels (instead of the rails) and he said as long as they are strong enough it won't be an issue. If you are unsure you can always trim into them until the uprights for the rack sit flush with the trailer frame rails.

If you have a different panel setup than what I described please feel free to send me a picture of your trailer and I will be happy to confirm if this will work or not.

I have attached a short installation video that you can also check out.
