4 Foot Long Ratchet Tie Down Strap for Boat Trailer
Published 06/06/2022 >
Question:
About 3 or 4 feet. Should I have individual ones like boat straps or can I loop two longer straps through the anchors on each side? Which is better ratchet or cam? The straps are lending stability to avoid rocking. The anchors are attached to the two projecting sides and the trailer. The trailer is four foot wide and the sides are six foot. The front is even with the trailer and the back two feet short so the camper is 6x6 on the 4x8 trailer. The trailer is bolted through the floor and there are 6 heavy metal L brackets as well. Since it was originally intended to be a truck camper a 2x6 rail supports each side as well.

So how long of a strap would work ideally for you and do you want a ratchet style or a cam lock style?
