New guy here i just started using a wheel lift on a rollback this year and I follow the manual. 2 wheel straps plus 2 safety chains. But on some of these rough roads and bridge joints it seems like there is tremendous pressure exerted on the wheel straps. I was thinking of chaining the car to the wheel lift so the suspension can't bounce as hard. Is this necessary or am I worrying about nothing?

I just got good equipment this year and signed up with Allstate Agero AAA and honk. I submitted my info to all and the only one that finished the process was Honk. That being said in 4 months I got one Honk call and that was when I had 2 already loaded up. I don't understand these clubs. Customers in my area say they don't call because the wait times are 2 hours minimum. When I applied to be a provider they said they have enough coverage in the area. Seems like if a guy has to wait 4 hours on the side of the interstate on a Sunday for a tow truck they don't have enough coverage. I didn't agree to work 24/7 and I don't think they like that. I run a shop during the day so I can only work nights and weekends. The busiest and better paying times. But that also means I'm not available to do the low priced daytime calls.

That's me. The guy that lettered my truck came up with it. Some of the wrecks I recovered look like they were attacked by a bear or maybe I look like Grizzy Adams who knows why he came up with it but people seem to like it.

I had a Kilar wood/steel carrier on my last truck and it worked just fine, my new Hino has a series 10 Kilar aluminum bed and it also does just fine. I have used JerrDan, Danco, and Century beds they all hauled what was asked of them. The Danco was the lightest most flimsy bed of the bunch but it was from the 90's so it's probably not relevant.
