In a perfect world squat would be square, all of which correlates with your comments.
Due to toolbox, could not get weight distribution.
For tiedown points, 4 are embedded into the steel and too far apart yet more can be added. For now, planning on using the tiedowns on the side.
Thank you much for above guidance and suggestion on trying at highway speed first. From industry, I am overly safety conscious and concerned with trailering. Could use someone to doublecheck how I tie the car down.
I am right next to the old sugar mill just off of Alt 90.
