    Anyone have XP with Gear America recovery kits. Quality or not? Thanks.

    I have their aluminum insert and Uber Shackle. Seems to be pretty heavy duty, although I have not used them yet. The shackle has a very clever anti-theft system. I did have one small customer service issue ( not their fault ) and they really worked hard to solve my issues.

    I have a 30 foot recovery strap and it’s holding up just as good as my ARB 20 footer. Good stuff for the price for sure!

    Never heard of the brand actually. But if you know where they're made, and the company has been around a while, and they have good customer service and stand by their products with a warranty etc... they're probably just fine. As someone else said, it looks like a Warn snatch block, and those straps looks like ARB clones.

    Their web doesn't give a lot of info about who they are. Their "about us" page is about as generic as you can get. They don't even say how long they've been around, where their gear is made, etc...

    The oldest review of their products I could find was from Dec 2018, and they're almost ALL 5 stars with a few 4's. Either they make the world's best products, or they just aren't posting their bad reviews.

    IMO, I'd just stick with a well known, and well proven brand that's been around for decades, like Warn or ARB.
