Our trailer is a livestock trailer with solid bottom and open slatted top, 
so we have four homemade, specially constructed hooks that hang on the slats 
and are wide enough at the lower end to accommodate two fence panels each. 
Then, on the wheel wells, Lud attached a couple of homemade brackets to hold 
the panels in place.  They hang from the upper brackets and are nestled in 
the lower ones.  To minimize bounce and noise, he snubs with rubber 
snubbers.  Oh, yes, he also reconfigured the bottoms of the panels to fit 
over the wheel wells.  Very handy fellow is Lud.
