ABSTRACT:
A tie-down strap frame connector (10) for use in a stabilizing foundation system (12) for a manufactured home (14) which comprises a frame including at least one flanged support beam (16). The tie-down strap frame connector comprises a hook portion (40) adapted to latch about a flange (58) of the manufactured home support beam, a strap slot (52) adapted to receive a tie-down strap (26) of the stabilizing foundation system, and means for altering the orientation of the strap slot relative to the hook portion so that the tie-down strap can be arranged in non-perpendicular orientations with respect to the manufactured home without creating a torsional stress concentration within the tie-down strap.
