Can anyone with experience suggest the best tie-down points for transporting my 1140 on my equipment trailer?
Thanks.

RTV X1140 Tie down for transport

Not sure if it is the best tie down method but this works for me. My equipment trailers have Rails.
I place my 1140c in 4WD and pull up on trailer until front tires contact the trailer front rail. I run a heavy ratchet strap 1700lb working load through the cab leading forward to my tie down points on the trailer and tighten strap a little. I then run the rear strap through the cab leading to the rear and tighten. Finally I tighten the front strap the rest of the way, set parking brake and close both doors.
