Default Straps, Tie Downs, Trailer Supplies, Etc

I recommend www.autohaulersupply.com for misc straps, ratchets to secure your car.
They main focus is the commercial car hauling industry. I have found that some of their
straps, hooks, etc are higher quality and less expensive than the boutique race car sites
that many restoration people buy from.

I have converted my ratchets to having a swivel J-hook that engages the D-ring in trailer
floor eliminating any strap at D-Ring end. This swivel Hook allows ratchet to remain level/even with floor and easier to operate
than when forced to one side or another.
Also this hook allows ratchet to be close to D ring and further away from car making for easier operation.

Ive also ordered 12K lb Diamond Weave Straps with a twisted snap hook vs a flat snap hook.

Has anybody used Horz E track on trailer floor with straps going over tires to secure ?????
