I'm getting a v nose trailer. I am planning on putting ski guides and traction mats in it but does anyone no where to find some? I'm not looking for anything special, just some rubber mats and ski guides.
Should i also put some on the front door?
In the front of the trailer, the ski guides will just be going straight, how do i make it so the sleds can turn so i can get them off the trailer without using reverse?
Thanks!

are you planning on using this trailer for fourwheelers too? because we just put on superglides which are ski glides that have been made so you can still get tracton with atv tires.

instead of a matt for the track to go on use an old track.
Owning a race sled is like having a totally hot girlfriend..... All of your friends want to see it, feel it and check it out..... They all want to know what it is like to ride it, but if they only knew how much time and money it takes to keep one up, they would call you a fool!

Gives you a minimum of 10'
If you look around, there are guys selling old tracks for like $20 or so for that purpose.
And they have curved ski guides to help the skis point off the trailer. Dennis Kirk has all of the stuff you're looking for.

For ski-guides, go to a junk yard and get a bedliner. Usually you get them very cheaply and they work great. Just cut them to size.

Thanks for this, these look prefect. How do i mount them? Do i put them together or space them out?

Nah why pay? go to a local snowmobile salvage yard, ask if they have any tracks that have cuts in them that they aren't going to sell. I have gotten 3 tracks from Emerson Stahl and I'm going back tommorrow to get 5 more.

Alright guys, I'm still having trouble with this one. I can't figure out the best way to set up the ski guides in the front of the trailer. How do I use the curved guides, do I space them out or do i keep them together?
I have 1 door in the front of the trailer. I am thinking about trying to fit 3 sleds on the trailer. If i put them all up from the front, I think I might be able to throw the rear of 1 sled in the v nose part.
Any ideas on a layout of the ski guides? I would really appreciate anything.
