Does anyone have any late-model Porsche specific trailer-tie-down articles, links or pics? Im thinking of putting e-track in my trailer floor, and trying to decide how to accomplish the actual tie-down. There's not much underneath the 996 to tie onto, so Im interested in what others have done to secure the car. TIA.....

 

If you have a car where there's not much underneath the car to hook onto, buy axle straps and wrap them around the actual wheel/tire and hook them to your ratchet straps. Also, the proper way to strap them to the trailer, is to use a X pattern, meaning strap the right wheel to the left tie down hook on the trailer, and the left wheel to the right tie down hook. Do this on both the front and back and you should be good. It always amazes me, to be driving down the road, and see a car strapped to a trailer strait down on both ends. That way allows the car to slide back and forth on the trailer, and under certain circumstances will cause the trailer to become very unstable.

 

I tow a variety of cars on my trailer and have a set of cluster hooks . I've never had any issues. The hooks also let me hook to the car closer to the center, rather than at the extreme ends. That's helpful because my trailer is short (16') and some cars' rear hooks end up being almost even with my rear tie-downs.
