For those that wanted pix of my leg retention device, here they are. They are comprised of 4 different components the list is for each leg.

A. 4" diameter hose clamp (heaviest duty you can get) 2 each.
B. Steel braided wire same size as for clothesline
C. Wire clamps 2 minimum.
D. Metal loop / link threaded for security.

The clamps go just above the bottom of the leg as shown and the threaded link is what the wire is looped over after the legs are retracted. I close the threaded portion of the link as the legs will start to drop after a few minutes.

The wire is threaded through the bolt holes just above the pressure plate at the bottom of the ram. There are 4 holes, two are used to bolt the pad to the leg. I figured why waste the other two and put the wire there. I use 2 wire clamps as I like the secirity of both clamps versus a single one in case the wire slips or the clamp wasn't really tight.

All of this stuff came from a regular hardware store like Home Depot or Leows. Other than the hose clamps the rest was on the same aisle.
