Note: Tie-down straps must be chosen according to their safe working load limit (WLL). The weight of the secured cargo must not exceed the combined WLL of the straps being used. For example, if you are using straps with a WLL of 500 lbs each to tie down a load weighing 1,000 lbs, then you need at least 2 straps to safely secure that load. It is recommended that you always use straps in pairs.

Today we're going to be taking a look at the Erickson Car Tie-Down Strap. This is designed with the flat hooks and the catches that hold it on to our connection point. The part # on it is 58503. This strap is 7 foot long, 2 inches wide, heavy duty stitching as you can see here at the connection point. As we said, flat style hook with the latch that's going to catch and hold it in place. The offer heavy duty steel construction on it. The standard ratchet style operation.
This is going to give us a 5,000 pound break strength or maximum capacity. That's going to give us a 1,667 pound working load limit. As you can see here we've got our UTV all loaded up, just need to get it secured to the trailer. These straps and this style have really been coming in handy with these things getting as big as they are. You really need some good capacity to hold them in. Also works great for cars or trucks, securing them in to the bed of a truck or a trailer. We are going to be using this in conjunction with part # 88509 today.
This is the Erickson axle strap. Now we're just going to bring this around, in our case, the control arm on our UTV. That could just as easily be the axle on a vehicle or truck. We're going to take our hook right under the D-ring there. To prepare a strap, we'll just bring it through the center slot and run it right back through the top section there. Then we'll just cinch it down.
We can take our excess, pin it right underneath our handle there. With our strap nice and secure, all we have to do is head around to the other side and get it taken care of, and we're ready to head down the road. That will complete today's look at the Erickson 7-Foot Car Tie-Down Strap, part # 58503. .
Ratings & Reviews
I was so disappointed when my tie-downs arrived and saw where "Erickson" had finally took the cheap way out and outsourced their manufacturing to China. If I had known they had known this I would have ordered the same thing at half the price. I thought I was paying double for good ol' American made quality. Now I get the pleasure of knowing my valuable show car is being held on the trailer by straps made by someone making a dollar a day, that could care less about the quality of their product. Please note that I am being critical of Erickson and not etrailer. I was very pleased with the service I recieved from etrailer and will buy from them again. It's just we hardly make anything in this country anymore and trust me the quality from this overseas junk is just not up to par with "Made in America"!! I am thankful we have a President who is trying his best to fix this problem. We have become a "throwaway society" which addicted to purchasing cheap junk. When it comes to tie-down straps I don't want Chinese junk. thanks
The Erickson Axel Strap system works very well for holding down the rear of the car during short or long distances. I highly recommend this product to anyone!
Used 4 of these to tie down my jeep wrangler by the axles to a trailer. Towed it 3,000 miles across the country, they held up well especially over the steep inclines and declines in Utah and through Tahoe.
Works as we wanted it to.
I’ve only given 4 stars on the ratchet straps so far since I had just received these today. I had purchased these due to its extra strength and latching hooks. These are definitely an upgrade over any I can buy locally. I use these to strap over each tire on our utv to the d-rings mounted to the floor of the trailer. These are 7’ long which is more than sufficient to reach over the tires and not having to tie and untie 10’-12’ extra tail strap. The construction is what sold me to purchase these straps for 2k round trip travels to Colorado.
Haven’t tried them yet. Well built
Tie down kits and axle straps were a perfect fit for securing my classic car in the trailer. Exactly what was ordered.
Exactly as needed.

Nothing but good things to say. Get's the job done.
Just hauled a 67 Camaro with these. Held the car tight on the trailer.
Had a pair similar straps for my car hauler. Finally found these to match. Just what i needed.

I have ordered from etrailer a few times and have always been extremely pleased with the products and pricing. To top it off their customer service is amazing, from the quick shipping right down to the message on the flap of the box once you receive your package. I highly recommend etrailer to anyone looking for trailer accessories.
