Quite often people buy tie-down straps and use them maybe a handful of times throughout the year. If something goes wrong and they need to replace, or in your case clean, the straps, it can be tricky trying to reassemble them. Especially since there are many different methods.

  • Can Erickson ATV E-Track Tie-Down Kit be Mounted to a 2x10 Board in a Toy Hauler
  • there is nothing that would prevent you from installing the E-Track tie down system # EM09160 in the manner you have described. But since the board is not permanently secured to the floor of the toy hauler there is the possibility of some unwanted movement. Something you might consider is an axle strap such as # BDW20229. So if you had a D-ring or tie down point in the center of the toy hauler forward of the golf cart you could center the cart and use the axle strap.

  • Installation of BoatBuckle G2 Ratcheting Tie-Downs on Shoreland'r Trailer for Lund Angler SS

The best solution to installing the # IMF14220 is to drill a new hole to match the size of the BoatBuckle installation hardware. I have attached the installation instructions for the BoatBuckle G2 tie-downs for you. The # IMF14220 has a safe working...

I've linked a video installation for your convenience.

  • Can the BoatBuckle Tie Down Strap IMF15437 Be Trimmed Down if Needed?
  • The BoatBuckle Trolling Motor Tie-Down - 2" x 13-1/2" # IMF15437 uses seat-belt-quality polyester webbing. With that being said, polyester webbing can be sealed using an open flame, so if you need to cut off excess material, it will not start fraying and fall apart. I do need to mention that doing this will most likely void the warranty, just something to be aware of.

  • Replacement 3 Point Wheel Tie Down Strap for a Demco Kar Kaddy
  • If they're not damaged then I would just replace your Replacement 3-Point Standard Wheel Tie-Down Strap for Demco Tow Dollies # DM03528 whenever they appear to be in non-optimal condition. There is no guide when to replace them so If they still look fine and work without any issues, then I don't see a need to replace them.

  • Does Kayak Bow/Stern have to be Tied Down Using Thule Hull-A-Port on a 2015 Ford Fusion
  • You should tie down the bow and stern of a kayak on any vehicle including a 2015 Ford Fusion. The Thule Hull-A-Port # TH834 does not include the additional tie downs but you can use etrailer tie-down kit # e36ZR if you do not already have straps or rope that you use. I like this kit because it comes with foam anchors that can close in your hood or hatch and provide an easy way to attach the straps without harming the vehicle. This is a great way to tie down the bow/stern of the kayak.
