Hi all,

Thank you.

The wheels, or as close as possible to them is best. Any part that moves up and down will put undue strain on the tie-downs.



I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

Or I go around the torsion tubes and beams. Cross the tie downs where you can and pull as tight so trailer suspension works and not car. Drive a km or so and check again.
