Help Is this what I need for the Ratchet Strap Method?

So is this it? I also read that you have to modify it or something. https://imgur.com/mD4zhWp

Yes, you need the 1 inch width one without any hooks. The orange in the middle are that, I think. You don't need to modify it but you can.

Just a ratchet strap without a hook in it. Look at it. Is there a "?" shaped hook anywhere? If not, then you're good to go. Orange one looks good. But we can't see it clearly.

All you need to do to "modify" it is to cut the strap to around 1meter since it is too long initially.

I noticed that, so I posted the imgur link which allows you to zoom in or something, I don't know.

You can get short ones here http://www.strapworks.com/Ratchet_Only_Straps_s/658.htm if you don't want to have to cut it. I'd get the 3 ft one. They even come in pretty colors and patterns! lol

I don't live alone and I can't really order anything, so I got a small window of opportunity and rushed to buy the orange ratchet tie down in that picture, turns out, it has a hook.

I'll never get another chance... Is there anyway that I could still use this? Maybe if I just cut off the hooks and use the rest of the strap?

What's wrong with the S they attach to a bar in my roof should i cut them off I would think the S that attach to a metal beam would be good my problem is getting the noose right I just tied a knot I'm it and it slips open and closes pretty good I'm thinking of 10 inches above ground is that ok or would you suggest a lowere position

If you buy the one with hooks you may have to modify it. The one without hooks you won't have to modify.

That's a much better selection than I've been able to find. You want the ones without hooks. Wish I could find one without hooks.

If you buy the one with hooks you may have to modify it. The one without hooks you won't have to modify.

What's the best way to modify it? I cut the hooks off and taped the cut ends to each other. I haven't been able to ctb with it and don't know if the tape could be messing me up
