got a big tex trailer, go me. How do you strap yours down I have mac straps with loop. I was planing on lower control arms straight in front and rear axle in an x. Front and back go to d rings.
My car is not as fast as I think it is.

I always used to "X" the back but I read straps are rated and designed to pull straight.Try to strap the car down so the suspension doesn't bounce up and down when towing.

I cross mine in the front and back. I have loops bolted to the u-bolts on the axle for the rear straps and the fronts hook into some slots in the frame where the original bumper brackets were.
