Boat trailer wheel clamps
Submitted by Dirt on Sat, 2015-04-11 08:15
Hey guys looking for a bit of extra security for my boat and trailer, I allready have a trailer hitch lock but would like to put on a secondary wheel clamp. I really like the Klamp it wheel clamps but unfortunately there is not enough room between the trailer guard and the tyre. My front yard has quite a slope down to the road so if someone wanted to they could pull out the chocks and my boat would end up in the guys house across the road. The clamp will also stop this from happening plus add another form of security against theft. My trailer is a dumbiers dual axle multi roller trailer. Any advise would be appreciated.

Through spokes of rims ( front and rear on one side)and padlock it.will stop it rolling down / good visual deterrent .

Get some lifting chain from A Noble and son Dirt. I'm sure they'd have offcuts.

Make sure chain fits thru your rims
Otherwise you are going to have a spare length of chain ! Padlock wise , good quality one ...... When you go to buy them you will see security rating and also weather / rust etc resistance on them . You will be looking at around $ 50 plus for a decent padlock.
