Sounds like you are looking for a new set of Blue Ox safety cables to be used when flat towing a vehicle with a tow bar. For that we have the Blue Ox cables part # BX88197 which are 7 feet long and have a 10,000 lb capacity. They are rubber coated too which prevents the steel cables from damaging any painted surfaces.
