[QUOTE="TWILKIN650, post: 26099, member: 27"] Water knot (or tape knot) test consistently at 50-55% of strength of the flat webbing. Beer knot tests consistently at 80% according to PMI's test facility (Pigeon Mountain Industries; rope manufacturer). To answer the questions, yes, both crossmembers can be used. I picked the smaller one to prevent interference caused by the webbing when installing the rider seat. And second, yes, 1,000# is way over what is needed. All you need is a firm tug on the strap. 1,000# hollow webbing is just easy to find. [/QUOTE]
