ABSTRACT:
A hold down system (100) for securing a vehicle (10) to a transporter (11) includes at least one hold down device (12) for each wheel (13) of the vehicle (10). The hold down device (12) includes a short strap (15) having two end loops (16) and a long strap (14). The extremities (18, 19) of the long strap (14) pass through the end loops (16) of the short strap (15) and the ends (20, 21) of the long strap (14) are attached and tightened to the transporter (11) so that the harness loop (29) formed by the central portion (17) of the long strap (14) and the short strap (15) encircles a portion of the wheel (13) and secures such to the transporter (11). Each wheel (13) of the vehicle (10) may be individually secured to the transporter to stably maintain the position of the vehicle on the transporter (11) while it is in transit.
