    Get ur hook tight to the rub rail. Grab 3 chains lengths or so past ur chain hook and attach ur binder hook there. Then pull the chain as tight as u can and attach ur top binder hook as far up as u can get it.. U should have the extra slack on ur deck by that point

    Once the chain is tight, I just find some place to tuck the excess, or hang it where it won't come off. If you can't do that, wrap it around the bottom and bungee it.

    Pull it tight . Once its hooked grab like 3 chains length above the hook and attach binder there... pull all excess from other side and attach the other end of binder as far up as u can go then tighten

    OK need some serious input here. Major dilemma...

    Wife says the little girl is a snotty little brat, and therefore should be named "Little Sarah". So what do y'all think about that for a truck name?
