Installing Subfloor in Cargo Trailer
A really quick video of us adding 3/8" plywood to the floor of our cargo trailer to add strength and protection.
I forgot to mention that the structural plywood is 3/4" thick so when adding 3/8" plywood we used 1" wood screws #8.

Best E-track install method using bolts.

We used bolts instead of screws to install the e track in our cargo trailer. We were looking for more strength than a self tapping screw could provide. We made a quick video showing how we did it and some easy install tips.

Here is our Ferris wheel the kids love it. We built it out of common materials and techniques following a set of old plans found online. We made only a couple small adjustments to the plans. We have ideas on improved chair access and pivot connections. Check out our other backyard creations to be uploaded soon.
Pull the floor up and weld it to the frame the right way
Great idea!!!
i'd just use a rivnut gun on solid tubing areas for optimal threads, make sure my floor is sheet metal or diamond plate so i can use 1/4" pop rivets to secure the rest where there isn't any and get way more load bearing the rivnut gun also has the perk that if a rivnut ever goes bad you can drill it out and replace it quickly instead of doing structural work for threads if you want the tracks very permanent just weld them down to the sheet metal flooring drilling to the support frame areas to make a weld pool for full securing, add on a roll on oil resistant shop floor coating and you are set for rust and can load even some large tractor parts no issue also don't forget that you can mount these on the wall beams as well so you can use the 2x4 e track clips to separate cargo or keep big bulk stuff from shifting, does double duty for a wall too
I was thinking the same thing. I don't like through bolting frame rails.
Very nice thanks
No need to go thru your floor with bolts.Get a blind nut kit and just install them in to the wall of your cross members and you will have 1/2" of threads to bolt in to
What you strapping down in there a tank? Absolutely not necessary at all. Good self tapping screw is plenty. If you are that worried bolt through the wood, and use plates or washers on the underside. Some people just install that way and dont even use the frame rails. You are just putting unnecessary wholes through the frame rails.
You invalidated your trailer manufacturers warranty.
Why so mad?
Hi, where do you get the E track ?
That great buddy just got a trailer so what about the mounting the track on the walls any tips
I do the same. And also spray some undercoating over the bolt, nut, washer and surrounding frame area on the underside.
Is there a way to contact you to install an e track in my Cargo Van? I have a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter.
Let me kno if u find someone or if u end up doing it ur self thanks
