    Yes they do!!! Need to be retired ASAP. Still want to know who thought it was a good idea to only have 4 winches on the passenger side that move at MOST 6".

    Its not just a bad idea, its unsafe. All but 4 straps pulling to one side? Thats nice. Especially when the load is top heavy.

    This load of CP is about as tall as my truck. DA1 can attest to how hard it is to secure like this, hes the CP king lol

    This isnt the first piple load Ive had thats tall, I just dont like this trailer. A '5' series trailer wouldnt be nearly as bad. Well see what I get next.
