I've had mine for over 15 years and never had any faults or anything come loose. Certainly no chance of weight dropping mine. I've had my heavy T56 on it, and also rammed against the body of the car without worry.

And yes at low heights it can be stiff....just use a longer ratchet lol.

Securing the box to it can be an issue, but that's trial and error as every box/shape will be different. Once inside the tunnel area it cant really go anywhere though
