    What is the metal thickness of the tie downs on the sides of the m416 tub? By chance has anyone made a drawing of them to recreate the tire down?

    Dan this is Superman from FJOA.

    Do you mean the 'handles' on the corners or the hooks along the sides?

    I think the hooks are thicker (at least on mine they seem to be) and I'd have to say around 12-14 ga. THe handles wold have to be 14-16 ga as they are slightly thinner.

    Hey Bud. I am looking for the side parts, the hooks. I have to address some tie down points for this trailer. :)

    Check with Carmine (cabz) on FJOA. He recently put some floor tie downs in his that are pretty slick. Not sure if floor tie downs would work for you but if so then he can help.
