Tie downs

I fully agree with the gentleman who stated that turnbuckles and chains do not stretch. Eddie Browder and I used turnbuckles in Texas in the 90's. As a matter of fact, Browder was returning to Abilene from Little River raceway and the road turned into ice due to asphalt and rain and he got his pickup and trailer 90 degrees to the road. A lady driving a Cadillac hitd the trailer and the rig went 180 and the Camaro stayed on the trailer.
