I have a similar trailer and got a Scorpion Coating in it (similar to Linex). Among other things, it will be my red neck Toy Hauler during hunting season.
Oh yeah - I guess I better put a picture of a pioneer in this thread.

I am about to buy a 20' enclosed and turn it into a toyhauler , never considered Linex on the floors.
Great idea.
Mine is a 7 x 14 with a 20" V-nose - so more like a 16' without the extra overall length. Some of the sites I go to are pretty tight so I like to keep the trailer size to a minimum.
If I take the door off the Pioneer before I load it, I can get out and walk to the trailer door. Gotta park tight against one side though.
They did a real nice job on the Linex. I figure I can make real mess in there and just spay it out when I get home.
You can also buy a Linex-type product by the gallon but not sure how good it is. I'm guessing not as durable as the coating I got.

Not durable unless it's hot sprayed the DIY stuff is cheaper for a reason.
Hi, thanks for the info about taking off the door to squeeze out. It is all kind or new to me, only have 12 miles on 1000. Still adding more lights and music system on it. Do you also have the soft side doors? Have not looked yet but how hard is it to remove one to get out? Have been crawling out the back and I'm getting too old for that. Thanks, Franz
I know. It's just another picture of a stock 1000 camo........but this one is mine. I was a bit surprised by the size of the machine when I was loading it into my trailer which is 6 x 10. Didn't have much room to spare. I have a hard roof, drop in bed liner and glass windshield ordered and supposedly will have them by early next week. Thought I'd throw in a pic under the hood just because every pic I've seen of it so far have been red.
I don't have the soft door ..... yet. Hopefully you can still just pulls the 2 hinge pins out and the door comes off.
I loaded mine up today and parked about 3 inches away from the wall on the drivers side. I had room to open the passenger door and walk out. 16 inches on the passenger side.
Do you think I will have any trouble with the axle or tire wear with the machine loaded 7 inches off center?
The trailer is parked on a bit of hill here - it's not the weight of the pioneer that makes it look tilted.
Great picture. Every time I see your flooring it makes me envious. I took off the passenger door other day and the two hinge pins were jammed in there tight surrounded by plastic door molding. Grinded some metal off of pin heads to ease replacement. Should be easier to get out inside the trailer. I don't think you will have any issues parking rig offside in trailer, that is beefy dual axle trailer and can handle much heavier load. Just keep tire pressure up to specs. Happy trails, Franz
Any
ideas on how to close the gap in the roof at the center divider to keep the dust from coming over the top?
"Breakaway mirror from atv trek on Amazon.
I added some pipe insulation under the roof on the rails, I noticed it vibrates at the center section.great success on noise reduction.

Great idea about the pipe insulation for front soft doors, will look into that. Good to see you got side mirrors to work with the soft doors. Finally received my Quadratec jeep side windows yesterday and will install them by bolting them to same area as your mirrors. They will be removable for ease of entry into enclosed trailer. Happy trails, Franz
Would you happen to have a shot front the front would like to check out the width of the 28x9" blackwaters compaired to OEMJust got it home. Time to play.

Very cool looking sporttrack. Congratulations. Now you can start emptying your bank account by adding extra equipment. Will try to add some pics of what you might need. You can never have enough lights, maybe you might want to make it street legal for the occasional ride into towns to get groceries? How about winch and front hitch receiver, makes it easier to move trailers around long driveways. Side mirrors are a must so you can see who is coming up your six. Music system so you can enjoy your tunes? Happy trails, Franz

Did you put the street legal lights on? And where did you get them? They look good and I was wanting to put some on mine since ride the road a lot!
Hi there, I had my dealership do the street legal kit to conform with DOT. It includes such items as turn signals, horn, mirrors, lighted license plate, etc. depending on your local DOT regulations. Now in certain counties can drive it legally around town. The more rural the better. The extra led lights are for trails, will hook them up to maybe high beams. Do not want to blind any body coming at me.

I cannot tell a lie... it's technically not mine, although mine will look like this when I'm done with it!lol The pics are from the CATVOS website. This is their 3" lift with 2" forward arched arms. I'm not sure on price, but I saw another thread where someone said they were $1,500.
