I'm going to try to install some racks on Monday or tuesday. But the walls on the inside of the trailer is wood from the floor all the way to the ceiling. How do I locate the studs? Buy a big magnet or what?

A cheap harbor freight stud finder. Or the old tap with a hammer trick if the sound changes you found a stud

Cheap stud finder should only be about $5 - $7. Got mine at Home Depot.. Of course fancier ones cost more.

wall studs in your new trailer may be aluminun, so no magnet will work.

The hammer tap like exotion mentioned is an easy way, once you get an ear for the sound changes.

Very nice trailer and setup!

I see that you seem to have a Commercial Snapper. I got the cash to get one for next season. I wanted to get the Snapper Hi-Vac for mulching leaves and bag in the wet season. How do you like yours?
