Installing E-Track on 1 Inch Thick Wood Floored Trailer
Question:
I want to get the etrack system for my toyhauler but cannot access underneath the floor because it has a sealed underbelly. The floor is 1 thick so will be sufficient to securely hold motocross bikes if I screw down every hole? tx

Expert Reply:
A 1 inch think wood floor should be sufficient. I would use 3/4 long wood screws to provide some more gripping threads. I would use screws at least every other hole if not every hole, starting from the center and working to the ends to ensure the track lays flat.
Use enough tension from the straps to hold the bikes securely, but do not over-tension them as you might blow our your fork seals.
