Good video. My truck is different from yours. I have spoons instead of bars. The only think I had problem getting used to is backing up the truck to meet the vehicle. I was always to far one way or another since you can't see the wheel lift or the vehicle when your in the truck. I do accidents on the highway alot so there's not alot of time to adjust the vehicle. I use my safety chains sometimes to pull the vehicle straight. Because you usually only have a little space to do it. The only thing I would add to your video is that some vehicles can't go on the wheel lift. BMWs, Mercedes Benz, Audi. Volkswagen you have to be careful for the point of the wheel lift and their oil pans. Obviously these days you have to be careful of electric vehicles and all wheel drive vehicles. Some vehicles won't let you take the electric parking brake off. So they have to go on the plate. Stay safe.

I see nothing wrong with the way this vehicle has been loaded I was taught the same way but I will say I’ve never seen the strap technique before I will definitely be giving this a try I’ve always done the V technique you spoke of so with my 12 plus years of experience I say send it looks great and I would also like to say I like to see the safety chains that put a big smile on my face wish more folks would use them as well great video and very easy for new hookers to follow gods speed brother be safe out there

Nice job. Never seen anyone use wheel lift straps like that. Works for you, great. I like the V method. Just looks like uneven pressure on the tire. Oregon does not require lights while loaded. You get laughed at here. If you are a hazard going down the road you can. Unless it's a heavy sometimes.

Also… I use a bungee cord on safety chains draped over the stinger to each other, ..but I also tow in California and the chain can’t even touch the ground on turns (damn wildfires) . +side more slack sharper turns

Good job my only observation is that you need to replace those wheel straps once they fray past the black line they need to be replaced and it could cause you an issue if you get inspected at least in my state DOT will get you for it.

Great how to video, but I didn’t hear anything about the distance between vehicle and bed. But everything else I heard is super helpful to me.
