[QUOTE="hokie_yj, post: 477559, member: 4238"] [b]Re: Trailer Tie Down Methods[/b] I always strap to the axles with axle loops. A strap at every corner. I would never use anything less. A few years ago I was in a wreck hauling my buggy. Someone stopped in front of me trying to turn into a gas station. There was a car blocking the entrance so they stopped in the road. I was only doing about 30, but I hit them hard enough to knock them into the car that was blocking the entrance and total both cars. One of the straps on the rear of the buggy snapped and the buggy shifted about 4" to one side on the trailer. If I was using one long strap looped under the pinion like I've seen so many do my the buggy would have ended up in the bed of my truck. [/QUOTE]
