what kind of straps did you buy?
if none, i can recommend what i bought, but they are a little pricey (incredible quality though) |
I did not buy straps yet. I was thinking of buying a kit of straps from summit. Someting like these.

Not sure how soon you need them, buy there normally a vendor at The E-town swap meet that sells all kinds of straps and trailering accessories. He has pretty good prices and I've bought a bunch of stuff from him. I have a dark truck, black trailer and black car, so I bought extra lights for the fenders and reflective tape so other drivers can see it better at night.

that macs kit is what i was going to recommend, but i got the one with the hook directly on the ratchet, and i love them
|
Ok thanks guys. I will wait till the swap meet to see what the vendors have. But in the meantime how about those pics on strapping a car to the trailer.
|
i got the ones from the swap meet (snapping turtle brand) and they started to fray, its why i bought the mac ones. ill work on digging up some pics
|
i picked my straps up from northern. i think there prices were pretty good. as far as strapping the car down. i usually just cross the straps. i tighten them with the car in neutral then when everything is all tight i put it in park.

yeah i always use the axle straps in the rear. i dont mess with the tow points in the front, i use a hole in the lower a-arms and i cross the fronts as well. you could use axle straps on the a-arms in the front, but you cant cross them if you do...thats how i ruined the first set of straps i had.
i have the car sitting with no straps at the moment, but tomorrow if its decent out ill put them on and take some pictures for you if you want. |
