Question

Question:

I am looking to add sides to my angle iron utility trailer. I have looking for v bolts and stake pockets that are not 2 1/2inch tall. The iron is only 2 inch tall and I want to make sure it is secure to the trailer. Thanks!

For a stake pocket that you could weld to the side of your trailer that would allow you to make your own walls for the trailer you could use the part # HW03-080. The inner dimensions of the stake pocket are 3-1/2" (w) x 1-9/16" (deep). This will fit a standard 2 x 4.

For a bolt on application you would instead want the part # CE45004G. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
