    OK, I rushed something.  I was antsy installing my shell to my 4×4 Northern Tool Trailer.  Here is what I did.

    I put a 3/4 inch plywood board to prevent rocks, debris from damaging the bottom of the shell.  However, when I put my shell on the trailer, it is currently resting on the fenders with about 1/4 inch of space from the bottom of the rails to my plywood and trailer frame.  The weight of the shell and that I didn’t measure properly why there is a space.  It cannot sit on the fenders.

    Any ideas on how to add some space?  Should I add a couple of hockey pucks for spacers?  Should I add some blocks for stability?  Any other ideas?

    I’m having some trouble on the bend in the doors.  Could be the changes in temp (I live in Minnesota)…

    My door fits just fine, but it is really warped.  The strap that CLC supplied works, but there is still a bend on the other side of the door.  Any suggestions?  Currently, I have the CLC strap and am using tarp straps to provide tension and hopefully it will reform back into place…however, after a test yesterday, no luck.

    I’m curious on the NRS strap solution…Did you cut them for the proper length or can you buy them in any sizes?  If so, what size and/or length?

    Also, do you think installing two straps would bend the door on the other side?  So, installing the other CLC strap parallel to other other one on the window sill and door stiffener?

    Any other solutions?
