Pin box holder for Tailgater was easy as I can mig weld. The ladder mount was a little different as I had to call in reinforcements, i.e. our oldest son who is the expert aluminum tig welder. If it's alum, I make the parts and he welds it.

I suppose if you had enough of them as they are not but about 6" wide, so it would take at least 4 or 6 for a mh

Just got 2 sets of these but have not had a chance to use them yet.
Our trailer is a 2109S and there is 2.5" between the tires.
I had to trim 2" off one of the Andersons in order to barely get it to fit between the tires.
I cut off the tip end, as recommended by Anderson. I didn't see how cutting anything off the other end was going to be of any benefit.
I did a 45 deg cut using my table saw.
This will give one tire a steeper ramp than the other.
We will see how it works out in a few days when we start our maiden voyage with our new camper up to the Olympic Peninsula.

If you look at the picture of mine going between the tires, you can see that cutting a 45degree on the bottom corner will let the Anderson in between the tires.

I can not set mine up between the tires like that.
There is only 2.5" between my tires.
I set it on the ground behind the tire.

I couldn't either, I only have 2-7/8" between them which is why I cut the corner off.
