• Best Location for Transom Tie Down on Boat Trailer with Hard to Access Transom Support Beam
  You could bolt the BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratcheting Transom Tie-Downs # IMF08893 to the aluminum trailer frame provided you used aluminum mounting hardware instead of steel. The only other way, like you said, would be to add an extension piece to make it easier to reach the tie down. There isn't a specific extension for this purpose so you would need to fabricate one using materials from a home improvement store. If you add an extension you will want to be careful not to over-tighten...

• Selecting Replacement Tie-Down Straps for Waverunner Trailer
  Wider tie-down straps are fine for your PWC application, even if they are replacing 1-inch-wide straps. The key is that you do not exceed the straps' WLL, their Working Load Limit. WLL is the most load you want to put on the straps; it is 1/3 of their break strength. Staying within the 833-lb WLL of the BoatBuckle G2 Retractable Ratcheting Transom Tie-Down Straps # IMF08893 will ensure a long working lifespan.

• Choosing BoatBuckle G2 Retractable Ratcheting Transom Tie-Down Straps
  For your 1400-lb boat/motor I suggest you play it safe and use the 2-inch Ratcheting Transom Tie-Downs # IMF08893. These have enough capacity plus a nice safety margin. With items like tie down straps you always want to use them within their WLL, or working load limit. This is their actual real-world capacity, as compared to their breaking strength which is 3 times the WLL. The idea is to choose a tie down that will never be used near its break strength. None of us ever wants to be near...

• Recommended Tie-Down Straps For 10,000lb Boat
  The break strength of the strap needs to exceed the weight of your trailer. While this sounds strange, you want to choose a strap based on the lightest item that is being strapped, in this case, the trailer and not your 10,000lb boat. If your trailer weighs less than 2,500lbs, which I imagine it does, then I recommend going with BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratcheting Transom Tie-Down Straps - 43" Long # IMF08893 which has a break strength of 2,500lbs. I attached a demonstration video for you.

• Can The BoatBuckle G2 Retractable Strap Be Mounted To The Underside Of A Trailer Frame?
  The only reason I would suggest not mounting the BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratcheting Transom Tie-Down Straps # IMF08893 on the bottom/underside of a trailer is due to it being more exposed to road debris. If you are not worried about that though, then you are perfectly fine doing so. These do have a pretty robust housing for protection, but I do suggest making sure they are nice and clean before storing the trailer to make sure they don't have any gunk that could build up and inhibit...

• Transom Strap Recommendation for a 2,500 lb Boat
  You would want the Transom straps part # IMF08893 as it has a break strength of 2,500 lbs and a WLL of 833 lbs. Think of the breaking strength as the strength the strap has when in an emergency situation and the WLL as the amount of weight it can handle continuously. Since the strap wouldn't be supporting the full weight of your boat at all times the # IMF08893 would work well for yours that weighs 2,500 lbs.

• Stainless Steel Transom Strap Recommendation for Boat Trailer
  For a stainless steel version of the part # IMF08893 that you referenced that would do better in saltwater applications you would want the part # IMF14256 instead. Part # IMF14256, uses a stainless steel body that resists rust and corrosion. The S-hooks are a vinyl-coated steel like the hooks on the system you referenced, for protection of the boat finish. These do come with the mounting hardware. I have attached a link to a product review video you can check out.

• Transom Tie Down Strap Recommendation for 2006 BassTracker Pro Team 170 on 2006 Trailstar Trailer
  I looked up your BassTracker Model Pro Team 170 boat and Trailstar trailer and it looks like a very standard boat and trailer so the BoatBuckle Heavy Duty Ratchet Transom Tie-Down Straps # IMF14208 that you referenced would work great. I like the ones that mount to the trailer though and retract so that you don't have to worry about misplacing them. For that the part # IMF08893 would be a really great option.
