yea those straps are the unbreakables... i would love to get my hands on one... they are hard to find, even in country....

and i go through straps because when i get stuck, it usually take 2-3 trucks to get me out... and we snap them...

they may be rated at what ever weight... but that rating is at a slow constant pull... not a sudden jerk like alot of peopl do to pull out... thats how you break truucks too,,, some peope should be recovery specialist..

haha ok I was going to say unless you're getting a running jerk then you must be pulling trucks up cliffs... But i know the type of mud you're playing in it's nasty stuff. I quite going off road at home because its just soup and I was tired of it. Last time I went out I had to winch out 4 trucks that was enough for me. I'll stick to red mud even if its a PIA to get off.

Well I know you guys don't seem to like military tires, but I finally got them today. Here are some pics. I just need to get them mounted on my wheels.

It would really look cool if you could stay stock height and stuff them in there.
You wouldn't be able to turn or hit bumps, but it would look cool.
