I bought 2 Blocker tie rings to put on my existing tie rings outside of my new aluminum trailer after reading how good they are and that they can be added to existing tie rings on your trailer. I am afraid they will bang and scratch the trailer as I go down the road. Any suggestions on what I can do to the metal on the Blocker tie rings to prevent that?

I would attach it to a large snap, and take it off the trailer when not being used. There is another device that works the same way and is removeable..........http://www.theclip.info/

We bought 4 to hang on our trailer, and we just take them off when we are moving. They attach with a small screw ring and come off in about 30 seconds. They are a great addition to the trailer and are much safer for the horses.

I have the Aussie tie and love it. We just take them off and put them back on. I sure like the looks of the clip. I may have to try them. I have several friends that have had them stolen off the side of their trilers when not in use...

I really thought they would leave marks on the trailer too. That being said I went to a roping this summer and 200 miles down the road remembered I had not taken the thing off. I fully expected my trailer to have some serious marks on it when I pulled over to remove it. Pulled over, went back, and lo and behold there it was and not a mark on anything. I still take them off when I remember.
