I don't know so might as well ask.
Being relatively new to truck camping, I noted in the video where the tie downs were loosened while on the rough stretch of trail.
I've read others doing this, recalling Jefe4X4 mentioned this in a post.
Is there any particular rule of thumb, so to speak, where a person should do this?
Speed limit while loosened?? Common sense of course, but is there one?????
Any other factors to be considered when running tie downs loosened for trail purposes???
Unfortunately there's no set rules regarding "how loose can they be", you simply have to experiment till you find what's work with your rig, even a change in suspension can change how you adjust your tie-downs.
