    With non-wheeled loads, you want to try and keep the force DOWN, and not at an angle. There is no need for forward/rear chaining. You want to basically "hold down the load to the deck"

    The load was actually pretty easy, and I over-secured the heck out of it. I had 9 of my 3/8 chains on it. I could have rolled the truck over and it would have stayed right where it was. Thankfully I didn't have to test the theory lol

    Loaded this up yesterday in Houston. It's reground tires, that they are using to install a new astro-turf field at the Air Foce Base. Was supposed to load 20 sacks @ 44k and turned out to be 3 @ 6800. I'll take this gravy anytime lol

    After being in storage for a while, she still runs good man. Took her for a spin to load up these machinery heading to Disney world.

    Don't know if this counts as a "flatbed photo", as I'm using a jeep and steering dolly combo, but here's a fun 115ft load I just hauled - and yes, I have hello kitty on the front of my cabover :)
