Question:

My stock latch rattles loose on gravel roads. Will this M3 latch hold tighter? going on a horse trailer tandem axle

Kayla, that’s exactly where these cam-action latches shine. The cam pulls the rods into the keepers with tension, which keeps the door tight against the frame and cuts down on rattling. It’s a big upgrade over some of the factory straight-bar setups.

We have the 36" latch # M393FR, the 45" latch # M343FR, and the 55" latch # M363FR.

Do you mostly run short local gravel hauls, or longer trips where the vibration really wears on things?

And for everyone else, what’s been your trick for keeping trailer doors rattle-free?
