[QUOTE="Todd Turner, post: 244017, member: 21071"] [b]Mail order sources for D-rings?[/b] I have bought D-rings that are inset into the wall from a local "big truck" supplier. Big truck equals big price, I found. Does anybody have any ideas where I can order these smaller D-rings for tie downs? I just bought a 7 x 16 Pace enclosed trailer and on our first trip something rolled back into the rear door and tweaked the hinge :mad: As a side note, while we were still loaded with all the gear in the trailer I ran through the truck stop scales. I checked the total weights of the truck and the trailer, plus the weights on each axle. Then, I checked the weight of the tow vehicle empty in order to determine the tongue weight. Sure enough, we were running with a tongue weight of 15% of the trailer weight. That's a little more than I like but less than that and it exhibited too much sway when the big trucks blasted past. When packing a lot of gear, placement is critical. This is even more true on a single-axle trailer. Too far off the center of gravity (CG for folks who poke holes in the sky) and it gets really squirrelly. More like downright "seat sucking" unsafe to steal a quote from Tom "Wolfman" Webb. Does anybody have a quick means to install ATK bike shoes so that they can be removed fairly easily when you need to use the trailer for other purposes? Thanks in advance. Todd [/QUOTE]
