Question:

What would be the process to mount this wheel chock to an all aluminum deck trailer? I have attached a picture of my trailer.

The Tow-Rax Removable Wheel Chock # TWSPWC3BT can be installed on metal surfaces using the included hardware kit. You will need a drill with a 9/16-inch bit for metal floors as well as a 3/16-inch bit. You will also need 5/16-inch and 3/16-inch Allen keys and a Philips screwdriver.

We do not happen to have an installation video for this item but I have included a photo of the mounting hardware with dimensions added to help you determine the fit for your application.

Basically you drill the 9/16 inch hole where you are wanting to attach the wheel chock, put the round insert into the hole with the raised portion facing down into the drilled hole and then using the three round holes as a template drill holes to insert the thinner bolts into and secure them with the bolts below. The thicker bolts will then screw into the large center hole of the plate to hold your wheel chocks.
