    Hello,

    I'm going to be moving to my 7th state and normally I just drive the 4Runner while my friend drives the U-Haul. However, this time I have since added my new Ram 3500 to the mix so I will be towing the 4Runner on U-Haul's new toy hauler trailer. Now I have towed a bunch of trailers but never another vehicle. My question is what is the best way to tie down the 4Runner? I do have larger 285 tires and a sim-line bumper. Below are the straps I was looking at getting.

    Oooh look, another mod.....

    Those straps are perfect. Use one for each point on your 4Runner. Do the 4 point method like this: https://strapinno.com/securing-cars-with-retractable-ratchet-straps-on-trailers/
