Re: Installing E-track in a cargo van
I thought about installing E-track into my Express... but never did.
My Express has a thick padded/rubber floor mat in the van. After packing the gear the same way for the last 2-3 years, nothing moves. I have the divider cage in my van; I could never live without this safety feature.
My pack is: (front/cage)
QRx212/SRX718x2/SRX718x2
Snake box/RF-rack/Amp-Rack (with monitor wedges sits on top)
01V96/Power Box/LS9-32
Mic-Box/hazer-case
Mic stands (in a drum hardware bag); dolly laid on top
Lights, toolbox, & laptop bag: get tossed on top of everything.
Light stands are lined up against the driver’s side wall.
The 01V96, Power Box & LS9 sort of “lock” into place in front of the wheel wells. All the wheels have made dimples into the mat and I don’t need to use the wheel locks. Also I drive on the Washington DC & Baltimore beltway without the load shifting. The last few thrown on items do wiggle around the first couple bumps & curves, but settle into place and don’t move afterwards.
