    This load scares the crap out of me and i want second opinions. Manily the tubing which is two stacks banded together and stacked ontopof each other.

    Only have to go 157 miles with it. I ussally work things out myself but this load i am not confident with.

    if you can add a straps on the ends near the posts help keep them sliding and the added straps may help you feel better, but it doesn't look bad tho

    Strap till it hurts man! When you run out of winches your done. You can't have too many. Never hesitate to throw a few extra "feel good straps" every place it makes you feel good. It might be overkill but it sure feels good.
