Hey Vic, glad to see you again!

I have aluminum straps holding down my 50 gallon tank. I have hook bolts going through my trailer to secure the straps. I got mine with my tank, but you could probably go by any nearby sheet metal shop and have them cut you a couple of pieces. I have some ~1/4 inch neoprene between my tank and the straps to protect them from the corners of the aluminum straps.

Hi Troy,

You sound just like our friend Jacob Daley.

That was what he told me in another conversation, but he did mention that if the skids will only be seasonal,

I may as well use nylon ratchets (like in the pics).  You got a little more specific and it all helps! 

Good to see you, too. I've been sick a while but am trying to snap out of it.

I don't want to put any holes in the Linex truck bed. Wanting to secure pallets to the sides by rope?

Still a work in progress. I think I know just the shop here locally, so will give them a try if we go with aluminum.

Thanks again! I appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions. You have always helped others.

I thought I was an orphan <grin>. And that was fine, but you just made my day!

64 years old and Still Learning!
