Hey guys I don't consider myself to be YTDOT. If you look at my past posts you can go back years and you will see clearly where I stand on this. I have continuously been one who comments against the need to secure 3,000 lb tractors as if they were 10,000, and I constantly refer questioners to the FMCSA website. That said I do see the problem with using a hardware store eyebolt as others brought up. To that end I googled it and posted a site that gives specs, not that I thought that they would really give the answer but just to show that there are specs for eyebolts that could be consulted. As for how I secure my tractors, and I do trailer a lot, most are NFE and I just use one adequate strap around the pedestal in front and 5/16 chain through a clevis in the bank. The larger tractors get the correct four way chaining down with 3/8 US Air Force grade chain. The chains on the front of the big tractor get attached to the weight bracket. A smaller wide front has a back hoe subframe and I pass a chain over that for the front, and in the back I use a clevis. Implements of course get a chain or strap over them.
