Enclosed Trailer mounting kits?

Anyone have any good ideas about what to use to hold equipment in an enclosed trailer, besides the really expensive ones you find on the internet!

Had a friend of mine weld a 5 inch u bolt to a 4x4 piece of flat metal ,drilled holes in the 4x4 and screwed it to the wall and use it to hold a echo backpack blower works great and didn't cost 50 bucks like most bp holders.

HOW's it WORKING ? ? ?

Petr51488,,,

The racks you made with basic clamps and wood look like a great idea.

How are they working out???

Any problems / issues ??? Is the clamp tension still holding up???

Have any weed-eaters fallen from a "big bump" ???



Hope everyone is doing well

Ive had the same setup of the 2x4's with the clamps and they are working great, I wish I would have done this a long time ago instead of pricing around for the expensive ones. I mounted the 2x4s onto the wall using those L shaped brackets and used 2 on each side and they are not coming off anytime soon. Grabbed the wood from a construction site trash pile and spent less than $10 for the clamps and hardware
