Looking to buy a trailer and need feedback.

Yes. With the bathroom (toilet/shower) package.

How are you successfully tying down your cart? I'm having a tough time getting my atv to stay put so I'm not taking it.

That’s fine. I went 8s full interior. I’ll take on your built trans with a stock one regardless.

Enlighten me, what's wrong with Tractor Supply??

There are some things you just don't buy from Tractor Supply, or Harbor Freight.

E-Track. It’s a tie down system commonly used in trailers. The track fastens flat to the floor and there are a bunch of different attachments to be used for securing stuff. You can put it on the floor or walls. I just used the single attachment point but you can get in strips with multiple points.

easy day, i got the direct hook ones because i have D-Rings that can swivel and rotate, I like the idea of moving the ratchet out from underneath the car, went with wheel tie downs because i don't want to hook to a damn thing underneath the car, now to work on those petty's garage bridle mount points or a bumper mounted tow hook. i'm leaning more towards bridal because I don't have a steep incline with the roll back 5*

Using direct hooks is especially nice when securing cars. Good choice.

For the most part I use that kind of setup, largely because on the flatbeds all I have for anchor points is the stake pockets. In the toy hauler I have E-track and can use wheel nets or tire straps.

The latter are a little more work to use, but there's nothing touching the wheels, which is nice. Either way, I never tie any vehicle with suspension to sprung parts, only to axles, wheels or tires.

I have the hold downs installed in the floor, just need some type of straps that go over the wheels with a single point of attachment to the holddowns.

The suspension has so much travel that attaching to the frame it won't stay secured, especially on rough roads.

Look into lasso straps. Inexpensive and effective. As seen on the rear in this photo.

Here’s the ticket. Made specifically for that. I bought these when I was using a ATV and never used them. I would sell them but shipping now would be prohibitive. You can get them on Amazon prime for less than I should have to charge.

Are the chocks removable? I'm cramped for space.

It has tiny wheels and limited space in the trailer.

The chocks bolt to the floor and the straps use the E-Track part of the chock. You should be able to zoom in on those pictures. If you need a absolutely flat floor there then just get some flat E-Track and ratcheting straps with E-Track attachments and go with that.

Then I'll just find some lasso straps. Thanks guys!
