I use a 24' with cabinets in the front, but I don't use tire straps, cluster hooks are easier. I have about 4 feet in front of the car, so it's more than enough. Pit bikes fit in the truck, no need for a cart.

Not gonna get a tool box in unless its narrow and fits between side wall and the cart. I only have like 4 inches between the cart and car. I use it for mine for my 67 Camaro drag car and I have about 18" between the car and cart.

Since you don't race your car you should prob just sell the trailer.

Your trailer is awesome but the new American Racing Headers set/up makes yours look like a dump. Words can't even explain how hooked up their setup is. Trailer had to be $70k.

where are you guys hooking the straps underneath your 5 gens

In the back I just loop axle straps around the lca's and then attach the strap to that.

In the front I have a tow hook mounted to the chassis I that's on the center of the car but before that I would put a hook inside a hole located in the frame rail. There are a few.
The also make a specific tow strap that mounts in those holes:

I still have stock LCA's and has hooking to them, I was shocked how much they twist when tightening the straps.

Don't hook anything to them directly. You need to use an axle strap that will go around those components. I've been doing it this way for 4 years with no issues.

I just thought that it was telling me to buy aftermarket LCA's.

Not at all. If I stop by the shop and take a picture of that area since my car is in the air.
