I'm going to haul my TJ on a trailer for the first time. I have a 16' dual axle trailer but I don't know how I'm going to securely strap the TJ or what I need to buy. Recommendations? Help!

I have to ask an honest question. How do you get that camper off when you get to where your going???
I don't see any tie-down points on the trailer frame. Tie-down straps go between them and the axles, not to the TJ's frame or tub.
I have wheels with openings large enough to pass my straps thru them. Works well for me.

We hooked a chain around the rear pumpkin. Then used a rachet strap around the front pumpkin to pull it forward and tight. Since we were driving 12 hours, we screwed plastic wheel chocks to the trailer infront and behind the wheels. You can skip that step for shorter trips in town or on flat straight roads.
The Denali pickup we used had 550+ hp and over 900 ft-lbs of torque. With towing mode for engine breaking. We blew through the CO rockies at 70-80 mph and didn't notice the Jeep back there.

Cross straps is the only correct way. Hoping none here ever get into a situation that proves this.
you forgot to mark your post as sarcasm since crossed straps is bad.
That was not sarcasm...deadly serious. Who put it in your head that cross strapping was bad?
