Hi, i always use a ratchet load strap and 2 hook chains. works a dream ! having used the origanal "track jack" i found they were pretty usless. Watch those fingers when the track lets go !!!!! i can hav a track off and on in aboutt 10 mins using this system ( if the pins are free)

I use a cargo ratchet strap and not knowing any better, I break the track halfway between the front idler and the return idler. Usually takes me 15 min to break it, pull out a link or two, and retighten.
