    I only discovered the web site recently, I don't think it's that old. Has some good stuff & looks promising.

    I have used my snatch strap quite a number of times. After reading that, I will be replacing it. Thanks for finding that site, Cuppa.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    That article was done by 4x4 Australia Mag,
    FYI my recovery points were used on all tests
    Even had a pic of one in the tow bar I make on a
    Porsche Cayenne on a sand dune, this is just snippet
    on recovery by the mag. Dean Mellor was editor at the time
    Not a new article at all must be close to 10 years old easy
    04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

    Nice one Cuppa. I was waiting for such test and review from a long time before actually trying it. Thanks for sharing.
