How about these? https://www.amazon.com/Lonwin-Trail...s=trailer+side+brackets&qid=1598282849&sr=8-9Yes, I can be verbose.... Maybe my question got lost in all the text.
I need some ideas for the back panel. I want it to be easy-on and easy-off.
......
I considered using door hinges, half on the panel and half on the upright, then making the hinge pin fit a little looser so it goes in and out easier. Seems like a lot of work for something that isn't the easiest/best way to do it.
Any other ideas? Seems like it should be a simple fab but I can't come up with anything. Oh, I don't weld.
I'm thinking using these corner brackets for a vertical slide in tail gate section that snugs to the top of the tail gate. The exposed trailer brackets would form additional wind bracing to prevent dropping off the back of the trailer should a pair of brackets fail. Because they will be mounted to inside of box (not outside as shown) you will need spacer nuts on brackets to give you room for interlocking the now 'interior' brackets. The brackets would keep sides locked in to prevent swaying of side extensions. You would be able to drop tail gate with the wooden extension rails in place.
VERY nice looking work so far!!
