The best way i have found for them is to roll them up and make them as tight as you can and place them in milk crates. and keep them in a DRY place. while i was on the road doing the big wide ugly hauling i carried 30 straps and ratchets that were longer then what you would normally find since some loads could be 12 wide and 13 high plus the tail . and some of the ratchets had long tails on them , so it was vary important to keep them all nice and neat as possible , same way with tarp straps i would make bundles of them in groups of 25 and wrap each group with a long strap and TIE it and hang it and add a second one pulling down carried 8 bundles of tarp straps and two full boxes of new. Thirty chains and binders So you learned to be neat and organised Had the milk crate in different colors red for the super long straps and blue for the standards . It made it easier for me when loading and that way i knew what crate of straps i needed for that load. . some of the big riggers had fancy strap winders that they could hook into a stake pocket and just turn the crank and wined up there straps , my trailer did not have stake pockets so it was done by hand .

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
