Not to make a federal case out of it but I love a debate because some one all ways learns something. Unlike you I will give you the numbers so you can look it up. Yes it is all in the hand book and it does make referance to the weight of the equiptment. 49CFR-SEC 393.130 says the four tie down rule only applys to 10,000lb equiptment and above. Under 10,000 lb equiptment can use this or may use 393.128 or 393.100 to 114.
393.128 says you only need 2 tiedowns thats one front and one rear.
393.100 to 114 is the ten foot rule for comitties. All so I will give you that a 9,000 gvwr does not fall under DOT rule. But it was debated by trailer manufactures and companys during the rule discussion period about small trucks. I can not find the outcome so I will have to backdown on this point but I do remember the DOT saying something like for saftey of all this rule would apply to ALL cargo carring vechicals. You sound to be someone that has pounded a lot of blacktop over the years.
So from someone that has pounded blacktop for over 25 years (ME) let me add BE SAFE OUT THERE!! your family and mine needs all of us to arrive alive !!!!!!! BEST WISHES
Happy Mardi Gras
