I just got some maxtrax and was wondering where and how do most people attach the leashes.

Good question. How: I think there's a loop at one end, so just pull the end through a hole and through the loop. Where: One of the corners. If and when: When I need to use them, if it's boggy or messy enough I may lose sight of them. I don't want the leashes flapping in the wind on top of the car going down the road. Just my opinions.

similar to above - and not a stupid question at all - i use some tubular webbing, cut to about 15' feet in length and use a carabiner to clip to them the mounting peg hole (on each corner of the maxtrax). I only use them if boggy or i have a chance of really burying them. I have the long length to put out to the side or actually clip to the rear recovery point on my vehicle to pull them out / along if i am not able to safely stop for a ways.

I leave my webbing on, just tied to a hole. I’m just pretty sure that when I need the boards I’m going to be so frustrated that I won’t dig them out and attach them.

Good idea. Never thought about attaching a leash to both of them. Behind your rig. So when you get unstuck they drag behind you. In case you need to drive a little way without stopping for them. @JustinSenior
