That PJ trailer is nice love the diamond plate shrouds

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean 5 месяцев назад

It has been fantastic so far!

@TN-ez6lz 25 дней назад

Just curious - Why didn't you butt the rails together so you'd only need a total of four endcaps?

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean 24 дня назад

Good question, thought at the time was to evenly space each one to cover the entire length of the trailer. In hindsight probably would’ve considered putting them touching from the back of the trailer forward.

@natemartin3855 3 месяца назад

I'm sold!

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean 3 месяца назад

We were also, lol! A couple of years later and still love this system!

@benny8300 2 месяца назад

Sweet set up !!!

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean 2 месяца назад

Thank you! We had the wheel chocks before this and thought they were great, we like these a bit more as they are a bit more versatile.

@pjfan173 Год назад

I’m buying my first toy/UTV to take the grandkids for rides out at the cabin and have been lots of videos on UTV’s and trailers. You should checkout a brand of strap called “Speedstrap” I’m going to with the E Track like you and speedstraps. I like how they cover the tire

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

We love this set up, will check out the speed straps and see what we think of em

@gordlockwood1213 Год назад

Thanks for video! Just bought a tipping flatbed trailer. The trailer loads Quads side by side and is split down middle so each side tips independently. We are definitely putting E-Track down. Question: was there any reason that you went with the 2 inch straps over the tire basket straps?

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

We had the two inch straps on our last set up and loved em. They are pretty versatile for strapping other things down as well (generator, cooler, etc)

@smeefamily54 11 месяцев назад

I have been looking at this system for my 18 footer trailer. What does the track look like after it has been exposed to the weather for a few years. I live in Canada and we use salt on the roads.

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean 11 месяцев назад

We were concerned about the same thing. So far no issue at all, it’s only been just over a year but have held up like the day we installed them so far. I don’t know if it matters what brand you put on or not but we used Erickson for these E Tracks and when we did an E Chock system about 5-6 years ago. The E Chock system has also still held up great (person who has it now we are with a lot).

@pjfan173 Год назад

Very nice setup

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

We love it

@mikemcgee6810 Год назад

Off subject, can you send me a detail picture of your spare tire mount and did your trailer come with it? Also, I’ve bought the 1 foot section because I did not see any point in the waste of steel. I am thinking about taking them back and doing the whole trailer because I love your idea of strapping down extra gear and you can possibly cable lock your stuff.

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

We have the spare tire mount that came on the PJ Trailer. For us the longer e track pieces opened up a lot more options as you mentioned. So far the biggest issues for us have been did we get a long enough trailer and can we put a large toolbox on the front of it? Otherwise has been great!

@mikemcgee6810 Год назад

@@DirtyJakTheDustyBean I bought my track system from harbor freight but they do not sell those end pieces. Can I buy those separate?

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

@@mikemcgee6810 yes we bought them on Amazon if I remember correctly. I’ll look up the purchase and see where we bought the ones we used and try to update the description with a link.

@chrisgrantham2341 Год назад

what is the corded contraption your using to drill those in with? I think my great grandad had one of those

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

Lol, gotta love it! It does the job and was the cheapest one we could buy at the time, we have two cordless ones sitting on the shelf while we use this old one- lol

@MotoFlows Год назад

Hey jak, could you specify what bolts n hardware you used to secure your e track to the trailer.

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

We were given a list by either the dealer or manufacturer (can't remember which one) of hardware that would work for our type of trailer. We were told that many trailers could be different so we didn't save the list, sorry other than what we have in the video I don't remember off hand what hardware we used.

@MotoFlows Год назад

Thanks Jak, just bought new trailer today and have my e track ordered. This will be a big help for my quads

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

@@MotoFlows What trailer did you get?

@freddygonzalez1265 5 месяцев назад

Most of the e track holes use a 1/4” x 2” through bolts and or lag screws but I used 2 1/2”

@alexisjakowinicz5395 Год назад

Very cool

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

Thanks for watching the video!

@DROPTINE Год назад

So did you really put bolts in every hole on the tracks please tell me you didn't LOL getting ready to pick up a new 7x14 trailer and I don't want to drill 100 holes............................. GREAT VIDEO!

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

Lol, heck no maybe every third hole or so on the track. It did end up being well over 100 holes though for the 16ft trailer. From start to finish only took us a couple of hours, was pretty easy overall.

@AboutaMileAdventures Год назад

Self Tapers into the metal that the deck boards are screwed to work well, then normal wood screws to the rest of of it. Works well., maybe 4 bolts and taps in the 4 corners if your really concerned.

@brennik05 4 месяца назад

I haul mostly lumber and a zero turn mower once in a blue moon. Thinking about this system. Would it be secure enough if I didn’t drill through the frame. Just bolted it to the wood?

@MotoFlows Год назад

Well I know what I’m buying next

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

You’ll love it

@MotoFlows Год назад

@@DirtyJakTheDustyBean is it necessary to strap all 4 tires or do just do it for peace of mind…

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

@@MotoFlows unless otherwise noted in the manufacturer instructions we always do all four tires- it’s so fast and easy it’s worth it to us.

Hey jak, harbor freight has a nice tongue tool box for your new trailer for 119.99…

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

Thanks we’ll check it out!

@nibbzs15 Год назад

So can a car drive over them without damaging them?

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean Год назад

Don’t know about a car, atv and side by sides can no problem

@jdenotter26 8 месяцев назад

Way overboard. Didn’t need to put all those bolts.

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean 8 месяцев назад

Once the tools were out didn’t take to much longer to do some extra, we loved our last wheel chock system but this is even better.

@GregDawkins-g2v 9 месяцев назад

You wasted your time and money with the fasteners. You SHOULD have drilled through the metal cross bars in the trailer and used your bolt system. Bolting them to the boards isn't strong enough. When they built the trailer, the boards are just laying on top.

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean 9 месяцев назад

We made sure to put some through the cross bars as well. Many are through the wood but some through the metal as well, overall seems very strong from what I can tell. Thanks for stopping by

@jdenotter26 8 месяцев назад

You know the boards a lag bolted to the frame right lol

@DirtyJakTheDustyBean 8 месяцев назад

@@jdenotter26 we went a bit overboard securing these tracks, we figured it only took a few extra minutes to do and cost just a few bucks more.
