Good day all! Hope you are well!

A couple of months ago I purchased a Trails West Adventure MX (2h). I love the trailer but have been noticing a bit of an issue with the ridge that is formed where the rubber lining meets the body of the trailer on the most forward wall of the horse compartment. My mare is 15.1 and makes enough contact with the wall during travel that it is leaving a horizontal line the length of her body mostly on the hind quarter. 

I hadn't been too concerned about it until today when some comments on a scorecard for my horse noted "whip mark". Oy! I do not whip my horse and so obviously this is a concern for me. 

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Does anyone have some ideas re: what I could do about the ridge? Any ideas?

Thanks so much!    

Hey there,

Sorry for the delay.

Here are a few pics!

That looks like Rumber Sheeting.  You could glue some additional Rumber sheets up higher, 

Set it so it is right where the existing sheet stops and continue it high enough that she can't lean against an edge of it.

Then when the mare leans against it, She won't have a line because the edge will be higher than her body.

Hey there!

Thanks so much for the suggestions! :)

I went hunting for some rubber sheeting this afternoon and ended up brainstorming with a fellow at our local Rona Revy (hardware store). I settled on a makeshift trim option using 1/2" thick (foam) pipe insulation (cut approx. 1" wide with a notch on the underside to overlap the rubber) and covered the rubber edge and foam with the fuzzy side of 2" wide industrial strength Velcro.

It feels good and I'll find out if my mare manages to whip herself on Wednesday!

Thanks again!
