  • 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.

  • Will Retractable Ratchet Straps for Thule TracRac Truck Bed Ladder Racks Rust
  • The Retractable Ratchet Straps for Thule TracRac Truck Bed Ladder Racks # CBTH12 have a corrosion resistant steel body and a stainless steel spring. However, if you plan to leave them outside all of the time exposed to the elements I would expect the body to eventfully start to rust. If you keep the mechanism lubricated, or at least park your truck inside the garage, it will help prolong the life of the straps.

  • Are Retractable Straps Available With a Cam Buckle Mechanism?
  • The only retractable straps we carry are ratcheting like the Buyers # 3375480011 you found or the Erickson # EM34416. I also was unable to find anyone online making those types of straps.

  • Trailer for Sea Eagle Stealth Stalker 10
  • For your Sea Eagle Stealth Stalker 10 I recommend the CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer w/ Bunks # CE48870. In addition to the bunk boards it comes with I would also add the CE Smith Carpeted Johnboat Bunk Board for Boat Trailers # CE27850 up on the tongue for extra support. You can secure it by the front handle using the winch and then add some ratchet straps like # e82JR for the sides and # IMF08893 to secure it by the rear handles. You may not need ratchet straps that...

  • Cargo Net Divider For Interior of 2012 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
  • From what I was able to find, the interior dimensions of your 2012 Sprinter are 72" x 70". You could use a cargo net like the Gladiator # GC94FR which is 6' 9" x 8'. There will be a little extra but nothing overly excessive. It comes with 4 ratchet straps but you could add some like the # EM04418 for added security. The ratchet straps will make it easily removable when not in use. Then you would need to mount your D-rings like the # 3486554 or # 337B46 if you don't already have them....

  • Can Strap on Thule Lon Tray Classic Roof Bike Rack Be Replaced
  • Hey Iggy, thanks for reaching out! The Replacement Ratcheting Wheel Strap # 853-6512 may work for your older Thule Long Tray Classic 591 roof bike rack, but according to Thule the exact replacement has been discontinued so I unfortunately don't have a way to confirm fitment for you. If you're doubtful that this strap will work then I recommend replacing your bike rack with something that isn't as dated. I recommend checking out the Rhino-Rack Road Warrior Rooftop Bike Carrier # RBC036...

  • 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'...

  • 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...

  • Solution for Bike Rack for Finn Cycle With 6-1/2" Wide Rear Tire
  • The fat tire straps for the Kuat NV 2.0 # BA22B can only accommodate tires up to 5" so the 6-1/2" tires won't work with this bike rack. Since none of the bike racks are going to be able to fit those tires, I recommend the etrailer Aluminum Motorcycle Carrier for 2" Hitches # e56UR. It won't be as convenient as a bike rack since you will have to use ratchet straps to secure it but as far as I know it is the only option outside of a trailer to transport your Finn Cycle.

  • Are There Examples Of The Lockrack Universal X Watersports Carrier With A Canoe
  • Hey Luis, We currently only have pictures of the Lockrack Universal X Watersport Carrier # LR88FR with kayaks, but canoes would fit in this carrier the same way. You'd just need to flip the canoe upside down and get it on the carriers, and then push in the ratcheting arms. Once the arms are locked in place it's not required but, you can add a bit of extra security for the canoe with a bow and stern strap # e36ZR.

  • How To Lock Steering Wheel of Vehicle that is Towed on Tow Dolly
  • Hey Dave great question. So some people will use the seat belt to lock the steering wheel. To do this wrap the seat belt around the steering wheel a few times and then buckle it and then pull the seat belt all the way out so that it's ratcheting and let it go and it will be locked to the steering wheel and hold it straight. You can pull on the steering wheel side of the seat belt to take out as much slack as possible so that it won't slip. To undo this you would just unbuckle the seat belt.

  • Weight Capacity of the Saris MHS Platform Rack Base
  • Hey Dan, the weight capacity of the Saris MHS Platform Rack Base for 1 Bike and Accessory # SAR38MR for the Saris MHS DUO Bike Rack # SAR23MR is 115 lbs, so it won't be quite strong enough to handle your 150 lb bike. That is pretty heavy for a bike, so I'd recommend trying to shed some weight and you might be in business because there is no single bike rack available that'll be able to handle a 150 lb bike. Your only other option would be to use a cargo carrier # C18152 and some ratchet...

  • Can Two Heavy E-Bikes Be Used With a 2013 Kia Forte
  • Terrance, it could potentially work if you're able to shed some weight on your bikes. If you're able to free up about 10 pounds on each bike you could then use the Saris SuperClamp EX Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # SA4025F and you'd be still under your max tongue weight. If not, your only real choice would be to store them inside your car if at all possible, or you could try and use the 19x47 Curt Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # C18110 with some ratchet straps. You'd ideally just...

  • Recommended Crossbars for a 2016 Chevrolet Equinox W/ a Bare Roof
  • Robert, if you have a bare roof your only option for a roof rack is going to be one that clamps into the door jambs. These roof racks don't seem like they'll be secure on the surface, but actually end up being just as good as a standard roof rack. If you're interested, I recommend checking out the Custom Fit Roof Rack Kit # RR96PP. This kit incudes a set of 46" low profile crossbars, which will be plenty big for a 28' ladder when paired with a set of ratchet straps # EM24UV, has a 165...

  • Can Kayak Bow/Stern Carrier Line be Used with Use of Thule Arcos Carrier
  • Hey Paul, I don't see why you couldn't run the kayak carrier straps above or below the Thule Arcos part # TH25YE that you referenced. I would probably go with above the box but there's no reason you couldn't also below it. The strap wouldn't put a significant enough amount of pressure on the box to harm it.
