Need a New Winch Hook!

[juz]

Had to cut the old Winch hook off to get Bar off truck, was small/old and bent anyway but I cant find any new ones! Ive been around engineers but they only have chain hooks, and I see 4wdbits have real heavy ones but there $130 any ideas were to get one? and what rating should they be? has to be one with a pin so can take it off..

am adding the products for stinky and winch hooks and some other items are still to be loaded, if you need another type of hook advise and i'll get it up asap

[dazza85]

if the loop is already in the end of the rope you will need one of these



otherwise you need to use a shackle to connect it or have the loop re done.

My advice after a wild ride back in to the Chasm when I was using a hook with a failed safety catch while winching out of bulletproof chasm, near the top of the bank the cruiser got a bit of drive that enabled the rope to go slack, the hook jumped off and when I lost traction It was a scary few seconds as I slid back with no winch rope attached. The $119 hook looks OK. My new one is the same as Bulletproof uses, I don't remember the name for them but they have a wide opening and eye and are opened by means of a toggle on the side of the hook, may be bulletproof will show us a picture. 4WD bits have probably got them.

YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR,
