Securing Various Vehicles in Car Hauler Using E-Track

Question:

I am going to be hauling Range Rover Mercedes BMW Jaguar Corvette Camaro in my 20 foot car hauler I want to place 2 tracks from front to back one on each side. What width would you recommend placing them to handle a variety of vehicles? Im assuming a little bit wide and then what type of strap system would you recommend using to tie them down? Thank you very much Kirk with Kirks Hauling

Since the vehicles will be of varying widths and weights, the best way to go would be to run the two parallel lengths so they's be a few inches inboard from the wheels of the narrowest vehicle and use a ratchet/axle strap type setup to secure them.

For each vehicle, you'd need 4 e-track anchors, part # 59147 and 4 of the Car Tie-Down kits, part # 08504-05. The kit includes ratchet and axle straps and will work if the individual weight of each vehicle is less than 8000 lbs (which it should be, given that a typical Range Rover weights in at 6000 lbs at the most).
