You'll be fine. And if not we'll pull you out. Most of the stuff we needed to do was just recovery boards

 

I was looking into those instead of getting straps. Lot of people have sworn by them. I did get a soft shackle and will probably pick up another, I think they are the greatest thing.

 

The kinetic recovery ropes make it so much easier on all the equipment. Takes all the shocking load out of the equation. I wont get another strap, just those bad boys.

 

Saw this on XOverland video...

what size shackle did you get? I know there's a bunch of them out there, just make sure you got one with the right rating for our trucks.

People see the smaller ones that are meant for ATVs and think they're fine lol.

Should be 7/16th or larger rope.

I have both ARB strap and now the rope. Never really realized you're supposed to let straps recover after use and what not so figure its good to have a spare anyways and yes I have heard the ropes are way better. A lot more stretch and much smoother of a recovery.

 

I have such a fucking hatred for Clay I wish someone would hit him with a shovel.

 

I did get the 7/16 rated for 30,000lbs

 

He does get annoying at times. lol

 

bubba rope or which?

Got these to since I didn't have any...

where'd you get it and price?

and they're better than nothing. I've heard mixed reviews for the smittybilt ones. We'll see how they do. I have heard they dont flex good so in the cold they might just crack.

It used to be the problem with TREDs too, thats why I got the TRED Pro or whatever they're calle. TRED gives lifetime warranty and says they're good for winter so we'll test haha. So far so good.

Maxxtraxx flex way better but they also have the knobs wear out quick.

 

The ramps were $190 at Overdrive Automotive in Newmarket where I got my lift done. They said they deal a lot with Shittybilt so any issues to just bring it by and he will exchange, etc...

 

meant the soft shackle lol.

I wouldn't mind havng a 3rd

 

It was $50 at same place. I pick it up tomorrow.

 

so same price pretty much as the bubbas.

Man i still think just jeeps fucked up haha.
When I went there to get them got two for $50...but they're normally $50 so I dunno if they didn't ring in both of them by accident or if it was some sort of deal. But hey can't complain haha.

 

That's a great deal. From what I been seeing they are in the $50 to $60 range for our trucks. The ATV ones are $35 or so.

 

Yep.
I love them thats why I want to get another. they really are great to use. much safer and easier at times.

 

Yea Joe you got a free beeeeeee

My bubba 30k lbs softies were $65 each

 

it was right before christmas so dunno if it was a sale though.

 

There are two for $50
