Default Trailer ratchet tie down straps

Can anyone suggest where you have had good luck buying good quality ratchet tie downs? I am looking for a complete set of 4 with hooks, axle straps and sleeves but am only finding 2" wide and have always used the 3" wide straps. 2" just doesn't seem strong enough for me even though they are rated at 3000 lbs. Thoughts?

I will contact a friend of mine. He has put me together with two sets.

He said he will after the first of the year.

Here is the web page for Snapping Turtle tie downs

I've been using MACs for years. Been to their factory in Idaho. Quality equipment at fair prices and Made in the USA.

X-2 on Mac's. I too purchased 2 sets at a Bloomington Gold event years back and have great service with them.
