Its worked fine of the last 8 years and is only a issue if you lose one.
There hi Quality straps with closed ends so they can’t fall off even if they get lose.
If I run them straight they get on the break lines

Made it to Cider city, stopping here for the night
It's also about the way in which they secure the load. Angle is less of a direct reaction against the likely emergency vector (i.e. straight forward)Its worked fine of the last 8 years and is only a issue if you lose one.

I get it, my Dad was a heavy equipment operator and Owned his business.
I was tying down D8 dozers and driving 40 foot low boy trailer’s before I was 15 year’s old.
I guarantee it’s safe there’s not enough angle in the straps to be a issue in a straight forward emergency stop or otherwise.
That being said I would like to have some axle Attachment points to eliminate the axle straps all together. When I weld those on they will be position so the ratchet straps can run straight.
I well post pictures up for you when I get it done

Pritchett Canyon
Unfortunately we did not get to run the trail because one of the drivers got cold feet or whatever and wanted to turn back.
I don't like to send someone back on there own so we all turned around and went back together.

Flatiron Meas
And a few of Kane creek.
Our Camp at Cruise Moab headquarters
That's my friend Dan he rode along with me this year and is a great traveling companion. Was very nice to have him along for the ride !!
Over night stop on our way there in Cedar City Utah.
And on our way back at the Virgin river Gorge Cedar Pocket Wash.
Both spots were nice little camp grounds !!

Looks like it was a lot of fun. I need to get all my home projects done so I can get back on my build.

I had a really good time !! And the scenery is always amazing in Moab !
Hoping to run some trails with you when you get your rig Done
Looking forward to it. I have a lot of stuff going on and I'll be glad when I can get back to some normalcy.
Glad you had a good time!
I was there, but had to ride w/ people since i ran out of time to mess w/ the 80.
Stupid death wobble and stuff

The armor worked very well ! It did it's job.
We ran Cliffhanger and I got hung up on the same big rock that smashed quarter panel and took out the tail light last year.
This year the only damage was some scratched paint on the armor

Well bummer for the first time in my ownership the cruiser did not pass smog
I've done all the simple stuff so now it has to go to the professional.
Luckily I live in a small town and know the guy at the smog shop and he does a pre check for me and it failed so I came home and spent the day tuning it up and went back after a long drive and some fresh premium fuel it was better but still no pass.
Made sure to tip him for pre running it for me
