The biggest problem with straps is that they cost more then a damn chain. and they cant take abuse like a chain… Chances are if you are breaking chains trying to pull something out… your doing some thing wrong!! ---

If you’re breaking straps you’re doing something wrong or you have some cheap ass straps. I carry 1-20k lb strap and 2-30k lb straps in my jeep at all times, with a compliment of d-rings and hooks and I’ve never broken a strap once. IMHO buy a REALLY good quality strap once and it will last, I spent 100 bucks a piece on my straps and I’ve pulled everything from full size chevy’s on 44’s to dsms with locked up wheels (foz :doh:) with those straps and never had a problem ---

There were no details but it looked like they were using chains to drive each of the wheels separately, not pull. Each wheel was on a swingarm - like a bike. Definitely looked badass. ---

Each wheel was on a swingarm - like a bike. Definitely looked badass. Yeah, I’m aware of that, I was more replying to quik than the actual thread.
