not sure about cover but you can get them off ebay made to mesure as to nose weight this changes as you load your trailer you can buy a nose weight gauge but just as easy to use a bit of 2x2 and bathroom scales.

Thanks bernie bann. How did you secure all this down in well? And where did the cover fit to as there doesnt seem to be fastening studs.

Hi Juliesh,I have posted a reply on the other thread you started but here it is again.

We had a Montana 1998-2005,we use to carry loads of stuff on it,windbreak,chairs,plastic storage boxes(those underbed type ones)clothes in a suitcase.

We had a pvc cover made which fitted over the rack and clipped around the bottom edge of the trailer with elastic cord and fittings.It just came slightly onto the trailer so it didn't obscure the number plate and lights.
Before we loaded anything we use to put a piece of breathable groundsheet down on top of the lid,this use to protect the lid and stop stuff sliding about,we then use to lay the groundsheet down inside the trailer lid so it protected the floor.

As for nose weight,its a very light trailer tent,around 290kg inc awning so no matter what your tow car nose weight won't be a problem.
