Expert Answers about Chevrolet Car Tie Down Straps


  • Recommended Tie-Down Straps for Transporting TrailBlazer and Traverse on Car Hauler Trailer
  • The Erickson Ratchet Tie-Down Strap with Web Clamp and Snap Hooks, part # EM58501 that you referenced, is suitable for your application to secure a vehicle to your flat car hauler trailer by its tow hooks, but we also offer shorter straps like their 7-foot Car Tie Down # 58503 which also has hooks on both ends. To use either of these you'll need tie-down hooks on the deck of the trailer. If you need D-Ring tie downs you can use # LRB1 from Brophy. If you prefer you can use 4 axle straps...

  • Recommended Vehicle Tie-Down Straps for 2020 Chevy Blazer
  • The Bulldog Winch Combo Axle/Ratcheting Vehicle Tie-Down Straps - Qty 4 # BDW20230 are a great way to secure your 2020 Chevy Blazer to your car hauler. Axle straps are superior to tire straps and are going to be more secure overall so these are definitely the way to go. The straps use twisted snap hooks to prevent accidental detachment. They also have gold-zinc plated steel ratchets to resist corrosion. The safe working load limit of each strap is 3,335 lbs so it will be more than enough...

  • Tie Down Strap Recommendations for an Infinity GNW 500 Car Hauler
  • Since you never know what you might need to put on your car hauler I recommend going with something that has a high capacity such as the set of 4 Bulldog axle tie down straps # BDW20230. They are rated for 3,335 pounds working load and 10,000 pound break strength. It is important though to go by the working load limit for any strap. I have included a link to a video review of these straps for you.

  • Tire Tie Downs for E-Track in an Enclosed Trailer for a Sports Car
  • For your trailer the tracks have openings that go front to back. To secure vehicle tires you would need the openings to run left to right like # E19148. Then you could use # 77314 which has e-track fittings. But we can make it work by using a couple of tie downs, # E59143, and ratchet straps such as # EM34416. If a vehicle has smaller or larger tires you would just place the tie downs in the appropriate spots on the tracks. Vehicles that are wider or narrower may still work on the same...

  • Recommended Wheel Tie-Down Straps for Tesla Model 3 on Car Hauler
  • Based on my research the Tesla Model 3 has 18-20 inch diameter wheels/rims that are 8.5 inches wide and uses 235/45R18 or 235/35R20 tires. I recommend using the Bulldog Winch Ratcheting Wheel Tie-Down Strap for Extra-Wide Tire - Vertical Mount - 3,335 lbs # BDW20362 for the tires on your Tesla. Traditional wheel straps won't fit the low profile wide tires, so this style strap is the best option for the application.

  • Recommendation for Wheel Tie Downs to Secure Jeep Rubicon to Car Hauler
  • To secure your Jeep to the metal deck of your car hauler, I recommend taking a look at the Erickson Car Tie-Down Kit # 08504-05. These straps feature twisted flat hooks that will help to keep the strap straight and flat along with axle straps to help secure the vehicle into place. They have a safe working load limit of 3,300 pounds and a maximum load of 10,000 pounds. I recommend using these with E-Tracks like the 4 Foot # EM19147, which can be bolted to the metal deck of your trailer....

  • How To Secure a Car with Raised Letters On Tires Using Wheel Strap Tie-Downs
  • Yes, the Erickson E-Track Wheel Tie-Down Strap part # EM58523 is exactly what you are looking for as it does not come into contact with the face of the tire like the Erickson Adjustable Wheel Net with E-Track Fittings part # 77314 does. These will both hook into the Erickson Horizontal E-Tracks like part # EM19147. I have attached a list of the different lengths tracks we offer as well as a photo.

  • How To Secure a Vehicle to a Car Hauler Trailer
  • I have a few options for you to secure your 2017 Honda Pilot to the Gatormade Flatbed Car Hauler. The best option would be to use the Erickson E-Track Tie-Down Kit part # EM58523-09162 (2) along with the Erickson Horizontal E-Track part # EM19147 (4). This will be the most secure option we have and it can be used on pretty much any vehicle under 4,400 lbs.

  • Availability Of Tie-Down Straps For Cargo Bag On 2014 Nissan Altima
  • I spoke with my contact at Rightline and they told me the tie-down straps are not sold as a separate item. If you are able to locate the 1 inch strap and the cam buckle, I recommend part # RL100600. These are the Car Clips for Rightline Rooftop Cargo Bags, and would provide the attach clips for your cargo bag on the roof of your 2014 Nissan Altima. The straps are 1 inch wide that are needed. To protect your Altima roof finish and the cargo bag I recommend using a non skid protection...

  • Recommended Straps to Transport 3,000 lbs Roller on a Trailer
  • For your 3,000 lbs roller, I recommend using the Erickson Car Tie-Down Kit - Twisted Flat Hooks and Axle Strap w/ Ratchet # 08504-05, provided you have the necessary attachment points. This kit has a working load limit (WLL) of 3,300 lbs so it would be enough for your roller. This kit comes with an axle strap, but if you needed additional axle straps for tie-downs, you could use the Erickson Axle Strap with D-Rings # 88509. If you do not have good tie-down points, another option would...

  • Recommended Way to Secure Vehicle to Trailer that Is Towed Behind Motorhome
  • I like using wheel straps for securing vehicles to trailer as the wheels of a vehicle are very securely attached to it and you don't have the risk of ripping out body tie down points like you mentioned experiencing. For that I really like the Pack'Em Wheel Tie Down Kit part # PK-WTD which you'd use for each of the tires.

  • Could Brophy D-Ring Tie Down Anchor # SR15-C Attach to Wood Floor
  • The Brophy D-Ring Tie Down Anchor # SR15-C that you referenced can attach to wood and can be used to secure a car as it has plenty of capacity at 1,600 lbs. Now whether or not it will work well attached directly to wood is not something I can really say since wood doesn't have the same capacity as metal. You'd have to consider the type and dimensions of the wood your trailer has and how many of these anchors you'd be using.

  • Making Easy to Access Tie Down Points for a Canoe on a 2017 Subaru Crosstrek
  • I have the perfect product for you and your 2017 Subaru Crosstrek. I recommend the Malone Hood Loops for Thule Bow/Stern Tie-Downs - Qty 2 Item # MPG308. Close the cylinder of one under the hood and the cylinder for the other close in the rear hatch, leaving the straps out on both, and that will create 2 easy to access and use tie down points to secure the canoe. I have linked a video below showing how they work.

  • Protective Sleeve Recommendation for a Erickson Tie Down
  • The only way to get the sleeves of the part # 88509 is to order them. They aren't available as a separate part. We do have a similar sleeve though, part # EM06305. This is used to protect painted surfaces, but it also protects the strap.

  • Do the Bows and Sterns of Kayaks have to be Tied Down when Carried on the Roof
  • You will want to use tie downs to secure the bows and sterns of the kayaks when transporting them on the roof of any vehicle, including your 2014 Toyota Camry Hybrid. A lot of the kayak carriers come with tie downs but if you need some you can use # e36ZR.
