My new (used) slant load trailer came without the butt strap, the attachment rings are there, but no bar or strap. I think I would prefer a strap. Any idea where to buy one?

I'm looking for a strap, rather than a chain. I haven't been able to find any marketed for horse trailers, but I had an idea to try... axle strap, break strength of 11,000 lb ... should do the job, and only about $10.

How are you going to keep it from twisting?
