Towhook thingys

Tree trunk protectors

Rated D Shackles

Winch Rope

Whats the story with these hooks and going on club runs? since they are not rated to give way safely they probably wouldn't pass?

Funny you should ask bolt on rated to 8ton hitch reciver to 5ton your tow bar who knows

So they could be used in place of a rated tow hook then?

Thats all i use on the back of my nissan but it is a lightweight truck

I went to a place today who would sell me a 9 metre snatch strap for $35 will you match price?

im just kidding.. it was trade price. wooo.

No but i might buy some off you unless there those cheap asian ones which my super lightweight Nissan seems to snap all the time

Its all those pies you eat Stinky Tofu is 1/10th of the weight

Can you you get these with a 50mm towball?

yep special order only pm me for price

Just out of interest, if anyone has one and is a 4wd club member, how did you go with the standard "no tow ball tow" rule. Just real curious on how club safety officers see these. I think they are safe as personally.

It is a rated towball, look at the thickness of the mounted towball compared to the one next to it. Somewhere I have a box for one and it stipulates that non factory towballs cannot replace the factory ball

My 10c

The Pintle and towball would appear to have a rating overall of 5 Tons , assuming this is metric that equates to 11023lbs, which is a bit more than a rated 10000lb hook, the "towball" on it is thicker than a standard one, the non towball ones are rated to 8 ton / 17636lbs

Most strops are rated to 8000lb/3.628 ton, The strop will give way first

some recoveries I've seen are people trying to pull the f..k off the hook or break the strop, if a gentle or good strop will not work then its maybe time to consider winching the stuck vehicle out or digging it a bit rather than "excessive stropping".

Mounting of these needs to be considered into the equation as these do not let go like the rated hooks do...., no point bolting it up to the back of your truck if you are using small/factory unrated bolts or there is not enough support behind it......with both my LJ's Stinky reinforced the mount and behind it to support it properly.

Like anything including rated hooks and strops if correctly fitted and/or used these are safe.....

Yeah wot he said

Yeah dam it. Even I have to agree that Jerry actually makes sense

God that was hard to admit (the first and only time Jerry will make me hard)
