Well anyone that would use snap binders would think that's a repair.
They are fine for anything up to a cat 450 backhoe.
I've been think of getting a few for hualing belt rolls. Snug it with the snap then cranker down with the ratchet loose rolls can make a 10 hour trip a 13 when your stopping every 50 miles to re hook bindersWell anyone that would use snap binders would think that's a repair.
The plate that was added to the box Blade should be flat on the trailer settingI'm a little confused what the original post was about?

I was thinking the same thing.... There is nothing stopping that hook from sliding around, atleast go underneath and grab a cross member, or go back to the D ring!I'm more concerned about someone simply slipping a chain hook over the lip of the channel iron to hold the machine down - rather than using the D-ring, right next to where the hook is located!
Surely the Highway Patrol guys or DOT inspectors would jump on you for a gyppo tiedown like that?
