Trailering your car without "rash"

[Green71R/T]

Don't put too much rope on the winch. I usually use twice the length of my deck or two layers on the drum when wound in. It saves crushing the bottom layers, is quicker when untangling a rats nest, and allows more pulling power. Always keep a minimum of 3 wraps on the drum.

Thanks, got the 12,000 lb. on Sat. for 300.00 with 25% off, had the wife get the remote with 25% of also. Get a plate with cover made & get it mounted, hopefully this week, thanks for all the info guys, time will tell.

? for the guys using Etrack and over the tire straps. Are you parking ON the tracks, or did you position the tracks just outboard of the tires?

Although we have a lot of D RIngs and E-tracks, we use the D-Ring with the original factory transit holes-no tires or axles needed, no ratchet issues and no rash on the axles or anywhere else, plus a snap to hook-2 in the front frame rails and 2 in the back-5 minutes and done.

Get the J Hooks, fixed end ratchet. If I remember this week I will post interior pictures with the built-in ramps that raise the car 8" and still easily clear the superbird wing at the top and nose at the front. My son installed 2 rows of 12 volt LEDs along the floor at the base to light it beyond any reasonable need for ratcheting or working on them.
