We'll just simply take our E-Track connection end and slide it into our groove and allow it to click in. As you can see there, it's nice and secure, now we can just bring our strap up, connect it into whatever it is we're going to be hauling, we got a little jeep here today that we're using. Let the slack come out of there and now it's just a matter of getting it tightened down. I really like the way this works out. more
