    You think you would bend a flange? I was always told use steel corners with chain so the flange doesn't get marked up by chains wearing against the steel.

    Sure, a ratchet binder and a piece of 3/8 chain can do a lot of damage if you aren't careful. Even with the edge protector you could still bend the flanges if you go too tight.

    I need an old shiny cabover out in front.

    More importantly, I need to rekindle my pride.
