    Anyone run the Cooper ATP? Looking to replace the stock sport tires with something more capable and better looking. Looks like these are a great all weather tire with little road noise and penalty to gas mileage. Most off roading I do is logging roads to get to mountain bike trails.

    So im going to replace/upgrade/get new recovery gear and was wondering what you guys were using brand wise?

    Im currently just using a hodge podge of stuff that was more for other uses than just recovery. So figure I should pick up some more stuff and stuff more specific for off-roading/recovery and all the same brand. Just an example i have 6 shackles and every one of them is different lol.

    They don't necessarily have to match, just as long they are rated (and rated for the task!), in good condition, and you know how to use it.
    Since I spoke up, here's my list:

    Hi-Lift Jack: OK, on this, yes, accept no substitutes. I have learned.
    Jack Mate
    Hi-lift offroad base
    Hi-lift ORK kit (turns the hi-lift into a winch, haven't had to use it yet)
    some shackles
    ARB 30' recovery strap
    Wheeler's Offroad 12' tree/recovery strap
    lots of gloves
    reflective vest
    t-handle spade shovel (like you find for working in the yard)
    Gerber folding shovel (absolutely awesome as a pick in the snow)
    sand ladders (similar to TracMats, not sure of manufacture - Penguins_CC had the hook-up)
    rotopax gas can
    rotopax water can
    Fiskars folding saw
    some random chemicals and a clean-up kit, plus some rags
    cheap tools
    WARN 9.5XP winch with MasterPull synthetic line and MasterPull hook

    Probably some other stuff I'm forgetting

    Most of it fits in a nice ammo can I found at a garage sale (I think it was for an M61 Vulcan), which is surprisingly small yet holds a ton.

    I have little experience with this stuff but have done some research. What about line dampers?

    I talked to Bill Burke and he said he did some testing where they tried to break synthetic, and the line wants to contract some before dropping. Still not something you should be right up next to when that happens. As for the blankets, he said that they are useless no matter the type of line; there's simply not enough force pushing down to counteract the amount of force contracting or flinging about. A 2 lbs coat isn't going to help against several thousand pounds of tension.

    I think it's on hold right now, the 3rd I had for him is an 8" and the rear in his truck is an 8.4" he's got the correct front assembly I think, bummer though.
