I reached out to my contact at ShockStrap and the ShockStrap Ratchet Tie-Down Straps w Shock Absorbers - 1-1/2" x 7' - 1,000 lbs - Qty 2 # 297-7RSDB has a minimum length of 29". Now this will work just fine at 32" that you were needing, but for a strap that will work at 20" you will need a different strap.

I recommend the Erickson Re-Tractable Ratchet Straps w/ Push Button Releases - 2" x 10' - 1,100 lbs - Qty 2 # EM34416 which will work perfectly at 20" like you were needing.

I included a few videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
