Rahimdad Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 Currently I too have been using the recovery points that come built in with the vehicle and have had no issues at all. I too like @Gaurav bhai tend to start slow and build up the tug strength with every pull. I always engage in 4 Low for a tug so I am never over 20 KPH. Some recoveries is better to dig a bit to have lesser load on the pulling vehicle. @G.huz if you find any good solution please do share, its always better to be safe than sorry. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They even sell them with the bridle for the path finders. https://www.the4wdshed.com/recovery-tow-points-shackles-equaliser-strap-kit-nissan-navara-d40-roadsafe4wd?preview=y I am sure there are shops that can fabricate something like that Edited August 5, 2019 by Javier M 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.huz Posted August 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 you know how search goes man, you start with recovery point, you end up with bumpers and skid plates and LEDs and tents and camping, and travel destinations... it's painful but i saw all sort of weird shapes, i don't even know if they fit in my car, the best thing to do is just search around in shops, do "window shopping" see what they do, what they have, get an idea of the cost. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow79 Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 For popular cars you can get ready-made points and hooks and trailer bars but for some model's you could order them through internet from places where those cars are making storms as it's their market so it must be catered to there and the rest you can always custom make them if you have a little bit of imagination time and patience...just remember the idea is to have good thickness , surface mating and it should fix nicely there should be no play not even a mm worth once it's bolted...if it moves then sure someday it gonna tear away... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islam Soliman Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 Where is best to get a kinetic recovery rope and soft shackles? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalahari Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 Ace sells soft shackles, as well as kinetic rope. Adventure shop at Times Square also has them. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajiesh George Kannankara Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 On 4/21/2019 at 7:09 PM, G.huz said: A sandbag is a good option, but in this case the recovery point flew in rocket speed. As am thinking, maybe another rope holding the main one would somehow work like a sandbad, it would hold back the main rope and whatever it's carrying from flying. Idon't know, am just thinking of work arounds to prevent this from happening. @G.huz don’t you think the damage can happen even from the tow car? Just something came to my mind. Sandbag would be a good option as it can stop the sudden movement of the rope/ shackle from both sides in case there is an accident. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
