Hi all,

Just wondering which is better to use in recovery, a rated bow shackle or rated D shackle?

Bow is the recovery standard !

Plus the bow is multidirectional.

Plus the BO helps you do cool jumps & drive fast on dirt......

Bow shackles are the go, you can fit more straps on one ,
say if using a tree trunk protector for eg,
Go to a sling shop like Beaver or similar and buy a few 4.7 and some 3.2
might be cheaper than a 4x4 shop.
Or buy a recovery kit in a bag from a 4x4 shop if it has all you need in it
