UPDATED! DO NOT install on a new PT. Clean and easy installation.

Upgrade. We installed them on Fresh PT 4x4. Over the last month as the PT has dried it has shrunk and there is not enough tension on the trailing cords and they are all sagging. Otherwise I stick to old notes. Don't fall for the offer to buy a port cargo crimping machine. They are very easy to use, we put them in a hand drill for a quick start and left about a quarter inch on each side of the 18ft barrel and they sank in the perfect spot when tightened to the right tension . (Depending on how accurate your rope cut was. We found the tensioning tool difficult to use, almost useless when the wires are only 3" apart, so we had to improvise. We made our own jig for even placement and depth. CAUTION AT THE CORNERS We were too precise in our alignment and centering, which resulted in the bolts running into each other and not being able to be tightened any further
