I started using screws a few years back, I found that I would loose a couple of screws (like studs) every time out. So I got some fender washers and I have not had a screw come out sense, I do need to replace the screws 2 to 3 times a year. I don't feel like I even have them on anymore. If I have to walk I carry them and put them on at the spot.
I need to do something with the straps this winter they are starting to tear thru from rock rubbing and climbing, I added D-rings to them and I can really get them tight I never have to retighten anymore.
