    I installed the new trailer tongue box last weekend its been used in almost every vehicle I've owned for the last 15 years. Its been sitting outside for about 2 years because I haven't been able to figure out what exactly to do with it I put it in the truck but it worked ok but then we fix the trailer and mounted it to the tongue. Works great holds all three main saws.. KIMG0134.jpg KIMG0150.jpg

    With the saws rattling around some what loose in there, do you find that they get beat up at all?

    Not in the truck bed or trailer bed. I haven't had it tongue mounted till now though. I would think they will be fine though it doesn't bang around much back behind the truck or blazer. It's pretty smooth actually with the new axle. I interlock the saw bars through the handles for transport with the sheath over the bars. It makes a tight transport configuration.

    Very nice PP, looks like everything fits nicely inside.
    Is that an old sled on the trailer?

    Thanks! It fits stuff really well. I'm going to have to make a back side mount for the log can't though it's too long to fit.

    Yes there's a couple old sleds on there for another member. Not sure I'm supposed to say who yet lol... Probably should have thought of that before I posted the pic.:emb:

    I figured that might be the person they were going too. Someone known to ride the old school sleds.

    I have never seen a snowmobile in person. Wait yes I have. When I was skiing in west Virginia when I was young.

    Get your hands on a old chunk of wall to wall carpeting and line the bottom of the box. Softens things up and who cares if it gets dirty or stained.
