    I Definitely need to get that better. I just always feel better if I have something there to help prevent a forward shift.

    Thanks for the tip!

    I just hauled a load just like this 3 weeks ago. Straps fit between these wires just fine

    Nope, up in north dakota . Was cold as hell , had to break open my binders with the winch bar cuz they were froze shut. I think i found wear gear oil falls short as lube... its like 90 weight oil, yeah that #### gets super thick and just freezes solid Lol. Think i invented some new cuss words in the process of trying to open those dang things up :eek:

    If it makes you feel any better the way you have it secured with the 1 chain/binder is how I do them... Maybe someone else has a better way?

    Seems to me like those bobcat tracks stick to the deck like glue anyhow :p
