[QUOTE="MikeinFresno, post: 37270, member: 40"] I use carabiners on both ends of my tie downs. This way I can run the bikes not so tight and the susp lets them bounce a little and also doesnt put such a load on the springs. I use soft straps loops over the bars and hook the carabiners into those. Never had one come loose after that. Get them at the hardware store for about $3 each. I also have sopme newer tie downs that have the carbiner built in as part of the tie down on the botton end and the soft loop at the handle bar end. They work too and I have had no problems with them coming off. And finally before all the carbiners I used a bungy cord from one hook to the other to keep tension on the hooks to keep them tight. It all works. [/QUOTE]
