Custom Tie-down Rack For All Your Toys

As the recreational vehicle world turns its eye toward the incredibly hot toy hauler market, with new innovative ideas emerging every day, so has a small company in Roseville California. Toy Hauler Accessories has had its eye on this dynamic end of the travel trailer market as well.
 

Owner Terry Lantrip had just purchased a new Fun Runner from Carson Trailer and realized that the “D” rings in the floor that were supplied with the 22’ toy hauler wasn’t nearly enough to accommodate his four motorcycles, a quad and a couple of bicycles that absolutely could not be left behind from any trip he and his family took.

Terry also realized that toy hauler manufacturers needed new options to offer, that gives this new strain of buyers the ability to load up any type of toy and to carry these items safely to any destination.

After two years of R&D, Toy Hauler Accessories is ready to launch the TT100 Tiedown Rack, the first of 17 new products designed specifically for sport utility/toy haulers and enclosed cargo/utility trailers of any kind.

Check this out. Whether you’re into recreation or racing, the TT100 Tie-down Rack works to secure just about anything you can come up with. There are two legs that are secured to the floor (one on each side) that hold a crossbar which is removable after you have arrived at your destination. The crossbar has 8 eyelets for tiedowns and adjustable wheel stalls. The really cool part of this rack is that when you pull the bench seats down, the legs are completely hidden and not in the way of any family functions at all. But, there is an added functionality that is truly needed. Most toy hauler manufacturers are careful to explain in their warranty that weight & distribution limits are key factors when hauling their toys. The TT100 wheel stalls are reversible, and allows you to tie down items to either side of the crossbar as well, which helps to spread the load over the trailer much better than conventional methods.

You can also purchase separately four attachments to the crossbar; a gas can holder that will secure all the most popular plastic gas jugs; a winch kit that will allow you to winch up those super duty quads; a gear rack that attaches to the crossbar and is removable and stands by itself outside so you can keep all your riding gear off the ground and dry and 2 high powered magnets that attach to the lower portion of the outside metal framing which holds the crossbar while not in use. Last but not least a special set of adjustable hold down bars for motorcycles that will secure your bike without squashing the suspension.

The TT100 Tie-down Rack retails for $369.00 and is a bargain considering all that it will do.
