Tim,

I cut all four lines to equal lengths and then tie loops in both ends of all the lines. I run the loops off all four lines through a rope tied to something that won't move, a tree, car, etc.. I slip all the loops of the other end over something that won't break, steel pipe, spreader bar hook. Then I pull and hold the pipe/spreader bar for ten or so seconds as hard as I can. I will do this several times. If you have excessive stretching in some lines, you may need to do this with one line at a time, perhaps two lines. Once everything is well stretched out, I cut them all to equal length and tie new loops using figure eight knots. Check the lines to make sure they are of equal length and you're good to go.
