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

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.

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

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. ------------- 2010 R-Pod RP-171 2010 Honda Ridgeline TV |

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... ------------- Craig :: 2009 RP171 towed by a 2017 F150 |
