I slide drywall and plywood in my truck all the time . Would I have to lift over the permanent brackets,(not ladder) l installed in the tail gate ?

You can disconnect the ladder from the brackets but they will take up an inch from the tailgate and bed.

The brackets on my truck are right at the edge so they are not in the way. You would have to flip the ladder out of the way. I slide plywood etc. into my truck and everything is clear. I like this ladder and the cost was good for the quality. I have a 2008 Chevy 2500HD 4x4 with tall tires and it still works fine.

When stowed, the brackets and ladder add only about 1" to the height of the tail gate, but yes. If you have a full size truck, it will not be an issue.

Yes just screwed through the plastic. Even through drywall, but may want to get longer screws.

They mount directly to the underside of the body of your truck, not the frame. Depending on what you are looking for to accomodate getting in with the lift you might need another step or to customize a different bracket. But with 3 inches these should work fine. Hope this helps.

yes both and there is a lot of lift to them no matter how big your gate is...you may have to be creative with the springs if your gate is of a strange weight. and if you trailer slides are tall. There is a formula to install the cables.

Hi, It varies upon the trailer frame. Insert the head on the hitch of the truck. Back up and drop the trailer all the way down on the ball. Place tension bars in their sockets and lift the chains so they are straight up on the frame. This is where the brackets go. It's easy. Hope this answers your question.

You need to install both so as to get even distribution to lift or close tailgate

We mounted the brackets onto the trailer, but didn't tighten them down so they could easily slide into position after the next step. We then hooked up the trailer to the hitch on level ground, then put the tension bars in the hitch. From there you will be able to slide the brackets where they need to go to hook up the chains to the brackets. I don't know that there is a better way to do it as it depends on the trailer tongue length and other things to determine where they would go. Remember to tighten them down once in position.

No you need a tailgate or you could use a board to go between the van and the lift but be careful

Yes you can i recommend this product to anyone that needs a pull up bar. There are brackets so you can mount to the wall. But no you don't need them. You can put up and take down in seconds.

I'm not a carpenter or an engineer but I feel you should be safe mounting it above the door if you attached it to a stud behind the wall. If you simply screw it into the dry wall, the screws will pull right out causing you to face plant on your first set of TRX pushups. Be sure to pre-drill your holes. The mounting screws are huge and might split the board you are screwing them into if you don't have holes for them to go into.

It should because the sides are adjustable. It is composite material, so it is lightweight. I install it myself and put my factory tailgate on when I'm not towing. I like mine, but it's not made to be stepped on. When I have mine on, I never lower it, since you can easily hook up with the gate up. Loading is easy when it is up as well. It has a key lock too! this will prevent anyone from liking it better than you and making off with it.

Yes you just have to take off your tailgate but make sure you install it low enough so that you bont crush it when you open your tailgate

You can install in drywall if you use better anchors than provided. get molly bolts or better toggle bolts. You can support 50lbs+ using good toggle bolts - you can get them from your local hardware store.

Hi,Yes you should only install into a beam, vertical or horizontal. Use the bolts/screws that came with the mount anything else may not work and you could not only injury yourself but cause damage to your house. Once yuou have it up do a couple exercises with moderate weight on untill you get comfortable. I installed in mine into a horizontal beam in garage. Hope this helps.

If you are mounting plywood directly to the drywall, use screw ons. If you are up for building the wall on a frame that's mounted on the drywall, so there is room behind the climbing wall, i recommend going with bolt ons...you'll have more long term flexibility for hold placement

Yes, the only problem would be how you put under the trailer....they are designed to be bolted on...you could probably put a flat plated or something on it.

I have a Toyota Tundra. I used self drilling and tapping sheet metal screws to mount the brackets supplied with the box directly to the side wall of my truck bed. The screws are available at most industrial hardware stores. If your truck is a lease then this is not the way to go. I have seen people use wood to make adapters that will bolt to existing screw holes in the bed the screw the box brackets to the wood. Hope this is helpful.
