    I'm sure it is fine the way you did it and it won't go any where but those big coils should be loaded suicide style. I try to use straps on just about everything but big coils are the exception. You could put 5 maybe 6 chains through the middle instead of four. I don't think straps count toward WLL on coils. It looks like only four coil bunks in the picture instead of five.

    I didnt load it. Was a relay for me.


    Truthfully I was just trying to post about what it's like for certain loads as flatbed. So newer people who read this can see what goes into securement. Personally I don't load suicide style. Personal preference for me though. Some drivers won't load it any other way, I'm not one of those drivers.

    Longest so far has been 180, but usually less than 100.
    Plus I would hate to go through all those tolls mt. I know it's not my money, but it's the principle of it and I'm naturally cheap.
