"Tiny" - A Semi Project

[chaplinfj60]

i have one buddy who loads his **** from the the outside also like your talking but h just puts the cargo strap hook right over the beadlock ring and calls it a day. all for exact same reason i bet. pain in the ass getting up on a semi trailer.

I had a rigging crew show up with a single long truck, long bed, they had put a 6ft seacan on the front and that's where they stored all their ****.

seemd a nice way to securely store things on a flatbed, but not sure if you'd have enough space even if you extended your deck.
was slick for them, they rolled the forklift off the deck and then just opened up the can.

I actually have a 8x2, 4ft tall tool box thing that came with my trailer that I pulled off long ago. I had debated plopping that on the front. But honestly between the pass through in the cab, and the boxes under the bed on the sides, it has plenty of storage for the majority of trips. There's a small box under the bed on the driver's side I keep extra chains and **** in, and then the passenger side (which I never take pictures of) has a pretty good size like 2x2x2 box that is only partially full with spare fluids, little craftsman mechanic toolbox, and other wrenching ****. It has a metric assload of storage as is, so I haven't seriously thought about putting something on the deck in awhile.

I have thought about welding tie down points to the axles to make life easier, might do that at some point but strapping the chassis is fine. All the straps have clips on both ends so even if the suspension moves and they get loose for a moment they can't fall off.
