Expert Reply:

To secure your Jeep to the metal deck of your car hauler, I recommend taking a look at the Erickson Car Tie-Down Kit # 08504-05. These straps feature twisted flat hooks that will help to keep the strap straight and flat along with axle straps to help secure the vehicle into place. They have a safe working load limit of 3,300 pounds and a maximum load of 10,000 pounds.

I recommend using these with E-Tracks like the 4 Foot # EM19147, which can be bolted to the metal deck of your trailer. Depending on the structure of the floor, you may also want to use backing plates like # e96RR when installing the tracks.

I have attached a few short video demonstrations on these products so you can see exactly how they work.
