[QUOTE="John Galbreath Jr., post: 477731, member: 31"] [b]Re: Trailer Tie Down Methods[/b] I have also found it easier to arrange the ratchets so you are pulling away from the vehicle, rather than pushing toward it. Get more pressure when you can put your legs and back into it. Rich showed me something one time when using an open trailer. Before the ratchet gets tight, feed to tail of the strap into the ratchet, thereby capturing the tail and not having to tie it off. If you have a lot of left over webbing and only use the straps to tie down, cut off the excess and burn the ends with a lighter to keep from freying. [/QUOTE]
