    Oh man i'll tell one thing them skates are very handy.I had to tow a 2021 audi r8(only 300 km 😅) from a supermarket parking lot very little space steering was locked and i was able at least to put it into neutral(near the cupholder red tool )since no power to the car the rear electronic brake was ON 🥴 so i had to use the skates on 4 wheels using the snatch block and oh man people see you as a hero using them skates and thank god did no damage 😳 plus 3 towing companies couldn't do it since they don't carry skates .

      Skates and snatch blocks are my must have tool on my truck. Good job getting it done!!! In my opinion the green wreckmaster skates are the best. I have a set of B/A skates that are orange and I DO NOT like them. The material they are made of seems to be soft and doesn’t slide as easy as the green skates.

      @@TowMan127 Fact! Wreckmaster's also fit together nicely to make one big skate. Skates have many uses and I don't think people utilize them enough. Example, low hanging trailer hitch. Throw a skate under it and your golden.

    Them straps looking sharp. Curious to see how you use them for tool boxes.

    • @TowMan127
      @TowMan127  3 года назад

      Thanks. They are a great set to have. The diamond weave straps are super strong and last a long time. When I have long took boxes I run them over the box to secure it to the bed. The bed has multiple chain slots going down both sides so I can use these straps instead of motorcycle straps or cargo straps. I believe I have a toolbox video that I have to upload and if not I will make one when I get another toolbox job. Thanks for watching! 🤜🤛

      Here is the link. The lady from baremotion set it up so that you can order different color straps. Now you can order the straps in black and the dog bones in red the way I have mine. www.baremotion.com/collections/towing-tie-down-system-kits/products/8-point-tie-down-kit-diamond-weave-mix-match-color-tie-down-straps-baremotion?variant=39622802571398

      Because there was a fence there, the vehicle wasn’t straight in the driveway and my truck was at an angle sticking out onto the street. I wasn’t trying to push the vehicle by myself either. Using the snatch block and skate allows me to shift the rear over as much as I need to align it with the bed. If the front of the vehicle was facing the bed of the truck then it wouldn’t be an issue because I can steer the wheels to go up the bed but unfortunately this vehicle was backwards.

      Here’s a link to an all black set from Amazon I updated the info with links. If you want the all black straps with red dog bones you will have to message baremotion and let them know. I ordered mine that way cause they don’t come black with red dog bones.

      I’ve been towing for 21 years. I guarantee you nothing got damaged. Those holes that I used my bridle on are strong. I’m not dragging the whole car, just shifting the rear over on the skates. The transmission was in neutral and the rear wheels were on the skates which slide very easily. Next time watch the full video before commenting.
