Wanted Enclosed Car Trailer

[Island Girl]

Ice Fishing is the poorest excuse to drink beer that I have ever heard!

While this is true, it's a most wonderful excuse, (as if there's really a need for one) for some hot Captain Morgan Spiced 151 . . . .

 

[Neshkoro]

You don’t need any excuse to enjoy some of that!

Spanky - Grumpy old man ...Probably!

My buddies always wanted to take me ice fishing when i was in my twenty's! Never could see the point!

Ice fishing? What do you use for bait to catch ice? (Ice forms in my freezer, so I don't see a reason to go out to catch it)

 

[choppedtop]

Okay, this isolation stuff is starting to take it toll here.

I find it real hard to "Cast" that hook into that little hole...…….Plus it is cold...No thanks..

I'm working on improving the floor before I drive anything into the trailer. I removed
any trim that I could, so much easier than taping off the edges.

 

[Indycars]

Working on securing the trailer so my first purchase was a couple lock by Proven Industries. It's made of 1/4 inch steel, but the puck lock is aluminum.





Proven Industries

Seems a good padlock is $100 and up and I need 3. That's over $300, OUCH !

What are you using?

 

[choppedtop]

Whatever you do,,,,don't lose your keys.

 

[Indycars]

Whatever you do,,,,don't lose your keys.

Don't worry, I will keep them locked up in the trailer !

 

[choppedtop]

Haha, been there once or twice.

 

[rbsWELDER]

Indycars - That is the lock I use! I do know that some burglars looked at it at an event and decided to steal another trailer! Make sure to put the hooks of your breakaway chain inside!

 

[old round fart]

That is a heavy duty lock! For the doors could you use the round locks that you can’t get bolt cutters to the shaft?

 

[Indycars]

Indycars - That is the lock I use!

Well then, it must be a good one then ! .....right ?

I do know that some burglars looked at it at an event and decided to steal another trailer!

That's comforting to know.

Thanks for the pic, I wasn't sure how the chains were suppose to attach !

What padlock do you use for the two doors ?

 

[Indycars]

That is a heavy duty lock! For the doors could you use the round locks that you can’t get bolt cutters to the shaft?

Something like this you mean ?

 

[old round fart]

Yes. I think that’s a good one. No room for bolt cutter and cutoff for wheel is to slow and noisy.

 

[choppedtop]

Walmart uses those locks on their outside storage units before Christmas season. They are just about bullet proof against theft.

Indycars - The Proven website has a demo video showing how to do the chains and the spokes model shows you how NOT to do the chains:

If those locks are expensive you can lock the ramp from the inside and exit the side door.
