what kind of trailer racks do you guys use. What are the advantages and disadvatages. It just seems like there are a bunch out there that are justa little different.

I have a rack for the trimmers, BP blower and sprayer, and water cooler from Trimmer Trap. I also have a trimmer rack for my 48 WB, and a boot for my 21 or spreader by Jungle Jim's. This summer at the Expo I'll be looking for something to hold hedge trimmers, gas cans, and a HH blower.

BTW, all the ones I have have been awesome.

I have an enclosed trailer. I bought the Trimmer trap that holds 3. They aren't really made for enclosed trailers. You need the hieght to get them out. But, with a little motification (saws all) it works fine now.

I use the Husqvarna "Grid Iron" system.

This system mounts on an open trailer or enclosed.

I like the locking system.. And the various mounting systems for trimmers, chainsaws, etc.

Good Luck...

I designed my own. For the trimmer rack part of it, I mimicked the trimmer trap. Mine can hold gas cans, all hand held tools, 21" mowers, 2 BP blowers, wb bagger and 3 trimmers/stick edgers. It is great. It took some time and know-how plus a welder and about $300, but it was well worth it.

Brian, go down to see Lee at Lesco. He has what you need right in the store. Wayne

I use Trimmer Trap for my Blower and trimmers. So far they have worked great. I lucked up on the blower rack. I got it at Northern Tool at about half price because is was being discontinued from the store.

My dealer installed a unit that is a generic version of a trimmertrap and holds 3 pieces of equipment. Seems to work very well. Cost was about $100.00 installed. He also welded it on for me.

I use the "Gear Caddy" It is good for holding 3 pieces and the blower rack works well to. Mine is about 2 and a half years old and I will say the older models are not very good as far as being theft proof. Great for out in the field but take your equip. off if the trailer is sitting out side over night. The newer models may be different. Either way I am happy..got the unit for half off since I was the first in my area to try it out when it first came out. I may change over to an enclosed tool cage soon.... If you plan on keeping equip locked on to the trailer I believe that is the best way to go
