Trailer Tips and Tricks

[Lil Giants]

One version of a tailgate lock I've done.















lift the box this much for the pegs to retract to release the gate door



Simpler idea yet for tandem trk.

Lil Giants. Sure was asleep on that one. Thanks for putting up pictures of your method of locking the gate. I built the lock arms and and then when working on the rest of the linkage remembered that I had a crashed Helli with some very small servos. I pulled one out and it fit right between the box rails, no problem. Needless to say that's how it ended up, servo operated. But thanks guys for posting your ideas.
