8 Tonne rated recovery gear OK for a Patrol or go bigger?
All my recovery gear was rated at 8,000KG for when I had my Pathfinder, now that I'm grown up to a Patrol I'm just wondering if 8,000KG is still ok, or should I be looking at higher rated gear and sell my 8K straps.
I currently have:
2x 9m 8t Snatch Straps (1x TJM, 1x Warn - seems Warn don't make a heavier rated one anyway - tho haven't searched too hard yet).
1x 8t Equaliser Strap
Usual 3.25t & 4.75t D/Bow shackles.
- all unused.
Getting a Runva 11xp winch next weekend, so will need to go shopping for tree protector/winch extension(s)/snatch block anyway.
Any brands to avoid? bogbuster seems rather cheap, so not sure of their quality.
