    I actually had 2 straps under it as well, I dont think they provided any help, but it's all I could get the customer to OK. I also have 1" 12x18 rubber pads, but they said no.

    Could it not be cross chained? Chains going straight down, or straps would not keep it from twisting a little, nor from moving forward and backward.

    It was and is cross chained on the rear. That's why it twisted, when the pipe spool broke on one side the other side held and pulled it around.

    Rubber underneath.
    No rubber......take it off.
    Never ever steel straight on the deck.

    Chains to the chassis or side to side under the chassis for downforce.
    Then chains allmost flat to stop forward and rear movement.
     
    kylefitzy and Lepton1 Thank this.
