I can't for the life of me find the holes where the jacking pucks/ t-hooks go so I can tie down my car to the trailer.....how are you supposed to get under the car to actually see and place these things....there's absolutely no room!

Yea, you don't have to get under the car...just down low alongside the car. I use the oval frame slots (with t-hooks and straps) to secure my car to the trailer when I tow it but I believe they are often used at the factory to support the vehicle as it moves along the line.
