Thin metal can and will bend.
A better place to connect straps/chains to trailer and tractor's axle(s).
Having front and rear wheels strapped together is a poor way to tie your Cubs down.......Every tractor needs to tied down separately.
I see more big trucks and trailers using straps over chains. Much safer and easier to keep tractors tied down than chains.
