Pipe busted loose ! Straps caught them !

Try alternating your straps as well so they arent all pulling to one side .

 

No doubt man that had to scare the living crap out of you! Any DOT involvement or did you guys fix it quick and roll on?

 

I have never felt that my straps pull any direction other than down! All of my straps, as most of us are, are on one side of my bed.

 

Even when I use my portable straps they are all on my drivers side.

 

With a load like that where it can easily move when u tighten ur straps , the side that you are tightening it will pull the freight that direction... when you alternate them it will pull it in both directions giving you more stability... 90 percent of loads u can get away with tightening just 1 side... just have be careful with loads of pipe or any bundled material that can easily move

 

Man props to you for over strapping the crap out of it though! Saved the day and maybe a life or at least someones vehicle/s!

 

And thanks for having the sack to share! I have never run that stuff and now if I ever do I have some brain ammo.

I mean, belly straps yes. Pipe stakes help too.
