Trailer questions and answerrs

[HOAX]

I thought I would throw this out there. Professionally I work for Interstate Cargo (or TrailersPlus), the manufacturer of the LoadRunner enclosed trailers. I can generally answer any question about any brand enclosed trailer, as this is what I do. If you have a question regarding quality, craftsmanship, sizing for your need, etc.. please feel free to ask in this thread. Hopefully others will find the information useful. Some info on us can be found at Interstate Cargo and Cargo Trailers | Utility Trailers | Enclosed Trailers | TrailersPlus

Great offer!

OK, how's this: Where can I get screws like this? They are self-tapping, flat-head, 1 1/2" long. They are used in my trailer to fasten the 3/4" plywood to the metal "studs". I've tried every hardware store in town, specialty fastener suppliers, Tractor Supply, and even my local Trailers Plus. No one stocks them...

John - it's a square drive bit

 

[HOAX]

Omslaw is right John, it actually is a square bit even though it doesnt look like it should be. And as far as the screw goes Omslaw, shoot me an IM with your address and I will mail you some. Other wise they can be had by calling our plant and ordering them in quantity.

*edit* Just noticed you are in KS, we have a store in Olatha and one in Blue Springs. You can always get supplies from them. But the offer still stands to mail them to you.

Your second link is bad. Your "find a dealer" link on the website is also bad...

 

[HOAX]

The second link is working fine now. And I have emailed in to IT about the find a dealer link. The TrailersPlus web site also has a dealer function.

a 6x12 is fine for two bikes and will be a snug fit. a 7x14 is necessary for 3 bikes with a 7x16' preferred.

I have a 6' x 14' v-nose and it is setup to haul 3... Last year, I hauled 3 Busas home from the Bash...NC to KC...

what's the purchase code to get the "family discount" on purchases? I was drolling over some of the trailers at the PRI show.

Its not an 8 point bit, its a square bit. Threw me off at first too.

A good commercial nut and bolt company will have those fasteners and tools as well. In Tulsa, Ok we buy from the Rule Company, also flat bed trailer suppliers (over the road trailers will have those self tapping screws...)
