Expert Answers about Chevrolet Tie Down Straps

• How Many Additional Straps Are Required to Carry 3 Kayaks With Yakima BigStack
• You will want a bow/stern tie-down for each kayak so the Yakima Bow/Stern Tie-Down Ropes w/ Ratchets and Strap Loops # Y04031 will cover the other two kayaks. You may also want the # Y07416 to go with them. I reached out to Yakima about the additional cinch straps and they said it all depends on the size of the kayaks. They said if they're too wide additional straps # Y05006 are necessary and said it would be best to get the straps just in case since you will regularly carry three. They...

• Where Should I Mount D-Ring Tie Down Points In Relation To The Front And Rear Of The Tire?
• Hey Dwayne that is a great question. Generally, we would want the tie down points to be in line with the front and rear of the tire. So the # EM58522 straps would hang straight down and connect to the # RR05 D-ring. You can also angle them forward if needed. It really depends on the trailer, the tire and how much space you have to work with. There really is no rule of thumb for how far away the tie down point can be, so if you have to go a foot away from the tire you definitely can. I...

• Can Cable Lock be Used Instead of Cam Strap to Tie Down Gear
• Hey Albert; I suppose you can technically use the Cable Lock # 8428DPS as a way to tie down gear, but I wouldn't recommend it and it doesn't have any type of load rating as it's not meant for that specific application. To be on the safe side I would definitely stick with cam straps like the 8-3/16' long Rhino-Rack Cam Buckle Cinch Straps # RRRTD25L or 11-1/2' Long # RRRTD35L.

• J-Style Kayak Carrier For Toyota 4Runner Factory Crossbars That Are Very Low
• I took a look at some photos of the crossbars on your 2019 Toyota 4Runner, and you weren't kidding when you said there wasn't much clearance. Thankfully, there is exactly one J-style kayak carrier that lack of clearance won't be a problem for, and that's called the Kuat V2, is available in either black or gray: - Black: Kuat Class 4 V2 Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # KU53VR - Gray: Kuat Class 4 V2 Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # KU33VR The reason this will work with such limited clearance...

• Will The BoatBuckle PWC Tie-Down # IMF14218 Work With A 2001 Yamaha XL 800 WaveRunner
• Hey Albert, The BoatBuckle Personal Watercraft Cam Buckle Tri-Down Strap w Soft Hook # IMF14218 has 8' of length for the second hook to work with to properly secure your WaveRunner. This has a 400lb safe working weight limit so it should be a good fit along with a bow tie-down for your 700-ish lb WaveRunner.

• Length of Ratchet Strap
• Hey Matthew, thanks for reaching out! The Titan Chain Ratchet Tie-Down Strap with Flat Hooks # TCLR22021-1 measures 19" from the end of the hook to the pin in the ratchet part. None of our other ratchet kits will have anything much different than that unfortunately.

• E-Track and Parts Needed For Securing Motorcycles In a Enclosed Trailer
• Yes, you can place the etrailer Horizontal E-Track # e25VR across your trailer from side to side. This will allow you to use the CargoSmart Motorcycle Wheel Chock # 3481731 making it easier and safer to secure your bikes in your trailer. Be sure to use the etrailer E-Track Backing Plates w/ Hardware # e46RR to secure each of the 5' tracks in place. Each of these kits includes 3 brackets for each track. I recommend using the Erickson E-Track Tie Down Rings # 59131 and Cam Tie-Downs # EM05729...

• How to Carry 4 Kayaks on a TracRac Ladder Rack
• Because the TracRac ladder rack crossbars are so large there are no kayak carriers that will fit them. You would have to rest the kayaks on the bars and use load stops such as # TA44700 to help hold them up. Then you would use some straps such as # RTD3 to secure them to the bars. And you would tie off the bows and sterns using a tie down set such as # Y04031.

• Availability of CargoBuckle Without Ladder Rack Bracket
• A CargoBuckle strap like the # IMF18816 you got is only available with the ladder rack mounting bracket. They don't offer it separately or as a replacement without the bracket. If you want more of the same without the bracket the only option would be to get another set of the # IMF18816 and pull the bracket off. If you don't mind a different hook style the CargoBuckle G3 Retractable Ratchet Tie-Down Straps # IMF18800 don't come with a bracket they just bolt on. The straps are 2" x 6'...

• Can you Increase the Towing Capacity on a 2015 Jayco Precept 29UM on Ford F-53 Chassis?
• So your 2015 Jayco Precept 29UM is on a Ford F-53 18K chassis which is the limiting factor with a towing capacity of 5,000lbs. I believe this is the restriction you are having. The Curt Receiver # C14048 you found while having a higher rating will not increase your towing capacity. If you can find a lighter trailer or vehicle to tow you can install a Curt TriFlex NEXT Trailer Brake Controller # C24VV with the Wiring Adapter # C51322 which will connect under your dash. Check out the...

• Recommendation For Hauling Two Mobility Scooters
• While there aren't any cargo carriers that would fit two mobility scooters or even be able to handle the weight of two, you do still have the option of using a trailer like the Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer # K2MMT4X6. The loading gate isn't the best for a mobility scooter so I recommend getting some loading ramps # 288-07474-2 as well. You can use some tie-down straps like # EM04418 to secure your scooters to the trailer.

• What is the Difference Between the TorkLift Camper Tie Downs and the TorkLift Talon Tie Downs
• The biggest difference between the TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs # TL84FR, # TL44FR & the TorkLift Talon Camper Tie-Downs # TL73QR & # TL44XR is that the Talon's are made of Aluminum which is going to be approximately 30-50% lighter than the traditional steel tie downs. Other than that, they are the exact same and will do the same job. The other caveat is the aluminum Talon tie downs are also going to quite a bit more expensive. With either choice you are also going to need a set of turnbuckles...

• Recommended Rear Camper Tie Downs for a 2021 GMC Sierra 1500
• Since you have running boards that run all the way to the rear, the only cusotm tie downs available for your 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 are for the rear using the TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs - Custom Frame Mount # TL54FR.

• Recommended Camper Tie Downs for a 2023 Ford F-250 Regular Cab With 8' Bed
• Hey Robert, sorry it can be a bit confusing navigating all those facets for the camper tie downs, but I did go ahead and find those tie downs you were looking for. For the front, you'll want the TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs # TL87CR (TorkLift P/N F2032), and for the rear you'll want the TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs # TLF3008 (TorkLift P/N F3008). In addition to the tie downs, you're also going to need a set of turnbuckles # TLS9529-2-LK to secure your camper to the vehicle.

• Are There Camper Tie Downs For A 2024 Nissan Titan XD?
• Hello Jerry, I am sorry to say that we do not offer any custom fitted camper tie downs for a 2024 Nissan Titan XD. We carry both the Torklift and Happijack brand tie downs and neither of these manufacturers make anything for this vehicle. It may be possible to use some universal no-drill bed-mounted tie downs like the Brophy # HSSF, but we have not tested for fitment so we cannot confirm that they will work. I have linked the review video and installation instructions below if you want...

• Are TorkLift Tie-Downs For 2014 Ford F-350 Specific to Truck
• Hey Kenneth, thanks for the question and the answer is yes, TorkLift tie-downs are specific not only to the year make and model, such as the 2014 Ford F-350, but also specific to the length of your bed, if you have running boards, and the hitch you have. For example, on a 2014 Ford F-350 with a 6-3/4' bed, no running boards under the bed, and a factory hitch you would use the TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs - Front # TLF2012 and Rear # TLF3006. Or for a '14 F-350 with an 8' bed, no running...
