Strap/chain boxes

Well, this has been a fun trip folks, and since we've narrowed down finding the gent something to work on, I think it's time for me to crash. Night.

 

How terrible would it be to use the trailer deck side of the step and mount chain hangars and a tray losing you maybe 8" of deck

(Rotate right 90 degrees)

 

I don’t know if I’ve ever seen one from a manufacturer made to fit up in there, but I’ve seen lots of people build them. Anything from open chain racks with a mud flaps hung in front to full cabinets. I would think a fab shop would have you flanged up with whatever you wanted pretty quick.

 

The trailer in my avatar had the boxes like you're looking for.
The trailer (Reitnourer) was custom ordered by the previous owner and iirc the boxes were made by ProTech specifically for this trailer.
I have to admit, having the chains right there was ultra convenient.
BOL

 

I think I would go talk to my welder and have him make on for me.

 

Got the pics from the trailer itself....

 

I think that would be perfect for what he wants, and maybe a few other people also might see the value in using that kind of box. Thanks.

 

I am thinking it is made by the truss trailer manufacturer to have a place for the pump and battery.

I never thought that would be a good storage spot until you posted looking for a box to be mounted there.

That trailer is getting old but that box is original to that from when it was made.

I don’t see a problem with tire spray or anything affecting the contents if built right.
