Anyone out there know how to install under skirt netting to trailer without cutting it in three sections.

I have been starting at the back, going over the axle then running forward. With the step in I made a horizontal slit to fit over step. Then you can pull the step out. I plan on making a vertical cut over the axle. Chip clips or clips from Harbor Freight might work to seal net  to Dome.

If you want something done right, do it yourself.

Thank you very much. I did not think about a horizontal cut for the step. Less cuts are better.
I appreciate your timely response.

I cut mine into two sections as I got tired of cutting my arms on the fender trying to slip it over the axle.  Any skeeters that come thru the wheel have worked for their meal.

I prefer two vertical slits at the step (cutting from the ground to about 1/2 way up, so that the middle piece can slip behind the deployed step) as opposed to a horizontal slit...

Thanks
