Instead of fighting to get my car on the trailer by driving it up spinning and all that jazz, I am going to just winch it up from now on, so if I was to connect a strap or chain under the front where is the best place and method to do so with out it rubbing on the front clip ?

Also along these lines how are people strapping the rear end down? 2 tie downs or one?

I wench my car into the trailer with a axle strap around the lower a-arm hooked to the wench.

I use 2 axle straps & 2 tie downs(cross them) to tie down the rear.

I put a U bolt on my car for the winch. I always use 2 straps crossed, front and back. Heard too many stories of winchs releasing or striping gears.

theres a spot on the stock K-member that I used to hook into before my lightweight K-member

I drive the front halfway onto the ramps then hook the winch to one of the holes in the bottom of the stock k-member.
Since the car is pointed up on the angle the cable doesn't rub the nose.

2 axle straps & 2 tie downs in the back crossed.

I was wondering the same thing the other day, maybe Madman could indicate where it would be safe to weld a loop in front to hook up a strap to... I was thinking on the k-member but what about somewhere on the cross member?

I am going to make something that quick pins on the front in one of the driving light holes for winching or towing off the track if something breaks, With the intercooler piping and air dam anything low enough to get a strap/winch on would be like 1" off the ground and would get beat up on wheelstands..
