Default Re: Tie Down Techniques

I had hook mounts (square 1/4" metal) welded to my front K-frame and use these to
tie the front of the car down in a X pattern.

On the rear I use axle straps over each side of the housing also done in a X pattern.

I have seen one open trailer that the guy has a Chevy Impala stocker and he has
what looks like a large "I" beam mounted so when the car is loaded the front K member
rides up on the "I" beam to take the movement load off the front suspension.
