Hey, excellent vid, invested in proper tie down gear and over 500km with 1st car and then 500+ back with broken car. Using your method both cars did not move a single inch, thanks for sharing, now I have a safe method and more confidence for future events.
Hey! I just transported 4 vehicles varying from 2,000-4,000 lbs. using this method! Worked better than I could’ve hoped! Got every vehicle to their destination safe and sound without any issues!! This video helped me so much! :)
Thanks Byron, Really appreciate your lesson . It's obvious this will work really well. Thanks for sharing what you learned. This is one thing you do not want to learn by trial and error, lol
Top video! Really well explained and we could see everything as well! And, as well as tying everything forwards, backwards and down, another very important consideration is that it has clamped down on the UNSPRUNG part of the car, which leaves the body free to move about on the suspension without stretching and ripping the strap to shreds as you drive along. I came down with a mate in a road train from Karratha with a 12x8 trailer tied onto one of the trailers, and we snapped two straps not even halfway to Newman by not tying it on this way! The third try was with chains, and the trailer didn’t move another millimetre the whole rest of the way ha ha! G’day from WA!
@@downtheshedwithbyron nothing to write home about, just a stock 2004 Mazda 323 Astina/Protege manual wagon but has low k's and garaged last 8 years, but over an hr to pickup location...
This does help out tremendously. I'm heading out to trailer a Chevy Suburban and I have no idea what kind of tie points it has. You've given me some options so I feel a bit more comfortable with getting it tied down.
Hi Byron great work on showing us how to tie down a car onto a trailer just through it would be great if you would mention the SWL of the tie down staps and especially the equalising slings as these are often purchased separately. Just a thought Cheers great demo on tying the car down.
Thanks very much for this info and great instructional video, im bout to put my build on the trailer and now with this video i have the confidence to know it will be safe. Thanks heaps dude.
Cheers. I usually go through the wheels front and back, while having winch also hooked on. Bought an expensive set of wheels so don’t want to risk damaging them by having straps running through them so this method seems a lot better.
Champion. Been strapping things to trailers for years, but not of the 4 wheeled variety. Nice simple solution to securing the wheel without buying specialty gear that'll get used once.
Yeah mate its mint I pick up a new demo derby car today from the auctions and a trucking hit me up of how did i do that so i showed him haha its all good its all about helping a mate out Dirty thumbs up from WA
Thanks for that, I'd been going from side to side through the gaps in the mag wheels and cutting my straps to bits on the sharp edges. Had seen the tie down points on the trailer in the middle of the fr/rear wheels & couldn't for the life of me work out why they'd been put there. Seems so simple once you know aye, cheers. (ps; wearing your yellow hi-viz I'm a little suprised the video didn't start with "assess your work area and fill out your take 5")
@@downtheshedwithbyron ok thank I was wondering because I’m supposed to be going to get my car on a trailer with a friend tomorrow but neither of us knew how to strap one down and this guide helped
That's a TOP way to strap the car down I tried it didn't cost me a cent
Awesome mate
As soon as old mate said "that's not going to go anywhere" I knew this was a winner.
Haha gold
Concise no waffling on well filmed & presented what more could we ask for thank you.

thanks mate
Should I strap 1 wheel, 2 or all 4?
Gday mate
I think it depends on where you live and road rules but if you can do all 4
@@downtheshedwithbyron Thank you!
What if you have the ratchet closed the slot so you can feed strap from bottom up pull on loose end ratchet. all the best to you and your loved ones
Yeah could do most of the time i have bigger cars on the trailer but it was just an option for the video before the kids got home from school haha
Another demo derby car just incase i dodnt have enough haha
Hey mate. I gotta take my project to the exhaust shop but it doesn’t have a handbrake. Will the two straps be enough. Any advice?

North American methods differ as gravity assists our tie downs. It must be more complicated for you being upside down.
