And what length/size bolts did folks use?

I am thinking 1/4 x 1 1/2 steel with a black finish in Grade 5 from McMaster Carr.

EDIT: instead of black either zinc or cadmium

Re: Painting E Track

Cadmium sucks too....it will get a powdery white fuzz on it if exposed to the elements. Plus it's poisonous, so if you are going to pick your nose, or eat a sandwich after the install....wash your hands...

Why Honda still puts Cad finishes on some the stock toolkit is beyond me...I can't tell you how many times I'd like to slap up the dimwit engineer that continues to specify that coating...

Re: Painting E Track

Best to drill a hole in your trailer and measure it directly....

I was able to con the local neighborhood kids into running all the fasteners in...then all I had to do was snug them up....
