Spring Tension Tie-Downs

[Dockmaster]

These were recommended on the FB Funco page so I ordered a set and will give them a try. From the videos and reviews they look pretty good. They will get a good test hauling my new car from Glamis back home to Oregon in a week.

Curious to hear the results.

I would think strapping something with suspension straps that already has suspension will allow some extra movement.

I believe it is just the opposite. The spring keeps tension on the straps when the load bounces a bit on its suspension.

Looks sketchy to me as well, but...

All the reviews on Amazon are 5 stars. There are only 60 some reviews, but that's pretty damn impressive nonetheless.

Anyone have much issue with loose straps? Since I’ve started using axle straps and spring clip ends, tied at the wheels, and not crossed, I haven’t had a strap come off. Sometimes they get a little loose, but I always stop at the same spot on my drive out to check straps, tires and wheel bearings.

500lb straps on weird shit? Yeah. Not on the buggy though.

Should be tied at the wheel to prevent the suspension from being much of a factor.

If you strap your car down to the arms or tires, straps will not come loose. I never strap a car to the chassis because as the suspension travels the straps loosen and tighten.
