Default Question for anybody using E-track in a trailer.

What straps and hooks have you found to be the most important to "get and use" for holding our kinds of cars to the E-track?

Looks like you can get about anything so I'm hoping to not have to buy all that and get some good advice on what to pick up for straps and hooks.

any advice appreciated (unless the advice is "don't get E-track" because that ship has sailed).

I only get straps with and adjustable axle stap on one side and the etrack on the other makes it alot easier to strap down the car.

Not sure you have a Tractor Supply out there but they have a nice selection. I like to use the 3 sided ring that clips into the E track and then loop the tie down straps though them to lock things to the side of the trailler.

I did add 4 big D rings to the floor of Ryan's 40ft'r. To tie down a second car if needed.

I believe that is a law in most states.

I sold a car to a dude yesterday who strapped it down with 3 motorcycle straps...

Sketchiest thing I ever saw. Up until we screwed LED flashlights to his trailer deck to pass for tail lights.... cause those were out too.
