T-nuts / C-nuts for Utilitrac.

Doghouse · 02-17-2004, 09:18 AM

I am talking to a machine shop now about designing some t-nuts for the Utilitrac, so that I can store a ramp for my dogs in the bed of the truck.

I am a little curious if anyone would be interested in some for their own projects. I need to get an idea of volume, to determine what costs will be.

As soon as you get yours, please post pics so that we can all see exactly what you are talking about. I may be interested in some.

I have not ordered any yet, we are trying to determine cost. To get and Idea of what I am talking about, those 4 blocks that are installed on the ends of the rails. They came with the tie down cleats. They are held on by a bolt and a nut. Those nuts are the "t-nuts or c-nuts".

Nobody wants them?

I'm interested. I think they'd be handy to have.

I too would be interested depending on cost.

Doghouse: Why are you making them custom? Are the tracks an odd size or something? Try Mcmaster carr and search for t nuts.
