What’s the proper way to secure a 37 with knee action front in an enclosed trailer.
I have D rings on floor of trailer front and back. In the rear I will use axle straps with ratchet. Where would I attach to the front . The trailer is a 20ft Haulmark

Ether the front frames horns or the big cross member the knee-action units are attached to.

I found two brackets behind the x member that measure 28” apart bolted between the x member and frame with holes. Would that work? Maybe the only way to attach to a non suspended place would be a wheel net or would it matter?

I would say a non-suspended part such as a frame rail so the suspension could be snubbed down to prevent bouncing.
Not sure what you are refering to.

The front x member where the knee-action is mounted works. The angle down to the d-ring clears the steering arm and it’s straight in line with my d-ring.
Thank you Gene
