Expert Reply:
You can definitely install the galvanized steel e-track on your trailer that has a galvanized steel floor, as really the only potential issues are when installing e-track on dissimilar metals. So you can absolutely install any of the following e-track without issue:
- 3' Long: etrailer Horizontal E-Track - Galvanized Steel # e35VR
- 4' Long: etrailer Horizontal E-Track - Galvanized Steel # e95VR
- 5' Long: etrailer Horizontal E-Track - Galvanized Steel # e45VR
To install the e-track you can use a backing plate, the E-Track Backing Plate # e89RR, and for screws you can use the Snap-Loc E-Track Self-Drilling Metal Screws # SL99FR.
