Is it just me, or does this guy do an excellent job of being descriptive and very informative? Thank you so much, sir! As good business entrepreneurs, we should want a Clean, and Safe presentation for our company, drivers, and Freight! Keep up the good work, sir, and everybody else who's traveling on the roads! Watch out for other people! They Are Not Paying Attention!!!! Be Vigilant and Alert when we're on the road in Jesus' Name, Amen!

Thank you for the positive feedback.

[@Nexus-6]

Simple, direct explanation. Excellent, thank-you!👌

[@TaylorzTrailerz]

Thank you for that videos. We strap things down at work all the time but never know what to do with the extra strapping. Usually we have just duct taped it to the tension part of the strap. Thank you so much.

[@timcooper49]

Great tips here, thank you . I had never thought to run the end back through the ratchet

[@030glennful]

I like your way the most!👌

[@C-141B_FE]

[@JeagerTank]

Great video. Thank you for posting it up.

[@elstonkidd6494]

EXCELLENT. I tie down motorcycles on my truck for YEARS and always get confused on how to run the strap through the ratchets

[@rileypowell3920]

Fantastic video and explanation to everything. Thank you very much

[@rubyredracing]

[@mikem2315]

Thank you!

[@DunnMotors]

Nice and clean 👌

[@mathewdennison5354]

Thanks for the video; I've been doing this for a few years myself, but always great to see and hear how others do it. On that note, is there any reason why you guys (In the US, I'm in the UK) don't use Over Wheel Straps?

[@rubyredracing]

We do use over the wheel straps also. It comes down to preference. Also depends on the trailer that use different type of mounting points. I already had these straps and they are easy to store under my seat.

[@manuellopez504]

Awesome video Where I can get the same type of straps Thanks in advance

[@drummon222]

What’s the measurement of the straps? And where did you get them? Thank you

[@rubyredracing]

8ft. Any auto store or Amazon has them.

[@starrdogchamp1]

thanks

[@christianjaramillo4321]

What if the wheel spins and now your strap is loose?

[@rubyredracing]

Good question. 3 things. 1. Car in park with e brake on should prevent wheel from spinning. 2. If the wheel does spin the strap will let you know the wheel spun giving you time to pull over and adjust strap in a quick manner to get back on the road. The 3 other straps will keep the car in place. Each strap is rated at 3,333 lbs. The car weighs 3300 lbs. Less time on the side of the road is a safe day.

[@smallbank3886]

If my truck weights about 4,900 LBS what kind of tie down straps weight capacity do I get something over 4k?

[@rubyredracing]

The straps in the video are rated at 3,333 lbs each. I tow my 7k lb diesel truck with the same straps.

[@Moocow444]

Good tip

[@Atrayus1984]

I swear that all of this was so good until this moment 3:22. I can not unhear the ratchet. It sounds like its unwinding from just that minor hand chop... Am I mistaken? Please correct me lol if I am. Otherwise how was that secure?

[@rubyredracing]

I assure you it's not unwinding. Hearing that noise tells me the ratchet is tight. If I don't hear that sound, the ratchet needs to be tightened.

[@Atrayus1984]

@@rubyredracing Interesting, good to know, thanks for the reply!

[@PeaceChanel]

Peace.. Shalom.. Salam.. Namaste .. 🙏🏻 😊 ✌ ☮ ❤ 🕊

[@austen5793]

Man I loved that info but whyd you have to kill the entertainment by not finishing the whole car, I enjoyed the video, but why did you have to stop it after just 1 strap, maybe other people don't want to watch, but I sure got bummed, no more tips or tricks? I need this information I'm learning, and I enjoyed this type of content, dam :(

[@fresh5237]

Is a 32ft good for 2 car

[@rubyredracing]

Should be good for 2 cars.

[@StackUpIncorporated]

Could I use a heavy equipment trailer with a pintle ring for car hauling as well?

[@GusgusA1]

yes

[@mr.imperfect6636]

What about the front?

[@rubyredracing]

Use the same method up front.

[@Hootie22B]

Great video, quick and to the point !!
