    Equalizer/bridal recovery strap

    Nw pajero As the front does not have a propery recovery point as such, but have been led to believe by using a equalizer you can use these to points as one using the equalizer strap.What are your opinions on this and is this the way to do a front snatch recovery
    Found this one equalizer strap at supercheap

      Even so that really was not badly bogged down my line of thinking was dividing the weight over to points equally would be safer and make for a even recovery

        When recovering using any recovery points be they factory or aftermarket it is always best to use an equaliser strap unless it is a low load recovery or using the towbar hitch receiver.

          I thought they were recovery points, not tie downs ?

              Digging up an old thread here I realise but I thought you didn’t wanna use any more shackles than necessary and using an equaliser strap adds an extra point of failure. But I guess this is countered by the fact that each shackle on the factory recovery loops takes less strain. Agreed?
