Latches on Flat Bed Truck Sides
Hi all
Anyone have the name and a link for those toggly type latch things on the side of trucks? I am thinking about the type where there is a pin with a toggling wedge. The truck side hinges up and locates over the pin. The toggling wedge rotates 90 degrees to secure. Can anyone make sense of all that gibberish? TIA Phil |

But you get the idea for a web search. :-) |

If it's tight vibration works it up the ridges and eventauly it flops over and is no longer secure. BTDTGTTS... -- Cheers Dave. |
