Re: Why you stand the hell clear when snatching...

Boats use all kinds of rope. I use 3 twisted strand rope used for mooring rope for snatching and is more durable than the webbing straps that break at the stitching

Just so happens they used spectra with a over braid with 1% stretch

Cheers,
I keep looking for the loose nut behind the wheel, but I can't find it!!

2WD 06 Hilux... for now
Re: Why you stand the hell clear when snatching...
I once helped an old koozer that had taken his 2wd van and got stuck up near Ahipara.
When I snatched him out I couldn't resist giving him a good had yank to teach him a lesson but must have been a bit too ruthless as his bullbars came right off haha.
