4x4 Accessories ARB705LB Recovery Snatch Strap Orange 30' x 2 3/8", Load capacity 17,600 lb, NATA approved, 20% Stretch

pulled two trucks out of deep sand today. 1 rubicon, driven by kids, who didn't air down. I sat back and watched them dig for a few minutes with their hands ( they didn't have a shovel either, but hey they're kids). after showing them how to air down, and supervising them shovel the sand around the tires ( with my shovel, and no, I'm not shoveling), I hooked up my truck (2019 Tacoma off-road) I attached the strap to the Rhino shackle hitch (another awesome product) and with 1 good tug, got them out. Lots of thanks from the kids and they were on their way. On my way off the beach after having no luck fishing in the surf, I see a chevy silverado, also buried to the floor boards and these folks ( a very nice family) waved me down and asked for help. So I say what the hell, I got out and helped these folks also. They had no decent recovery point on the front of the truck. Just a bull bar and that thing would have came right off or would have bent if I tried to pull them out that way. So I used the hitch, slid the strap into the hitch and used a hitch pin to fasten the rope inside the hitch. Worked like a charm . This is an awesome strap by ARB. It should definitely be a part of your recovery gear, along with a shovel, a couple of rated shackles and a hi-lift jack, and some max-traxx treads. If you purchase this you won't be disappointed. Good luck.

As of now I have yet to use it. I want to be clear this review is based off my first impression. I bought this snatch strap because I have a few tow straps and needed something with a little bit of stretch to it. I bought the 30ft 2 3/4inch strap for my car. I like the bright orange color and the sleeve is a nice protective layer to the strap. Very well made and highly durable. I had been looking for this exact strap for a while and couldn’t find it. But once I came across it I took advantage and bought it. I do think it’s a little pricey however you’re paying for the stretching technology so I guess it’s worth the extra money. I will update once I use it or if problems arise.

We live where there is a braided glacial fed river full of silt, and an annual snowfall of around 8 feet. There's no desert here, so don't ask me about sand, but I have multiple recoveries a year in snow/ice and river silt conditions. I have used cheaper alternatives to recovery gear, and they just do not work as well. With a shovel, Maxtrax, an ARB snatch strap, hitchlink, and a couple of shackles, we've recovered everything that's gotten stuck to date. The ARB snatchstrap is not a tow rope, it loads like a bungee cord and "springs" the other vehicle out. It is just long enough to position the recovery vehicle in any scenario we've come across, including on two different sides of a tributary. The ARB strap coils tight enough to fit in a "small-ish" kit bag with the other recovery kit items except the Maxtrax and shovel. I bought one for the Side by Side, one for the Adventure Van, and one for the Overland/Work/Rescue/Daily-driver Truck. Learn how to use it properly to avoid damage to one of your vehicles, and it is an idespensable piece of gear. Clean it after use and let it dry, and inspect it when it's out. My original one (about 3 years old) has some fraying on the nylon but is still very usable. If the Maxtrax don't work, this gets pulled out right away. During plowing season, I just leave one hooked up to the plow to pull it out of the snowbanks over and over again. Buy one. Buy two, and don't look back.

I bought this three years ago, just in case. Today I went to help someone on a snowy, melty, muddy narrow path in the woods get unstuck. Their diesel excursion had slid off the path on a slope and dug ruts trying to get out. While maneuvering to get in front of him, my heavy F250 dug into the mud and also got stuck. Fortunately, someone with a Colorado was there who was able to get both of us out using my strap. It took two tugs to get the excursion out but I think the Colorado driver was nervous at first to give it some gas. I came out in one tug. I didn't get to use the strap myself but I was very impressed with how easy it was for that little truck to pull two heavy 3/4 tons out of a pretty sticky situation. Between the trap, the hitch mount and the soft shackle I spent about $150, well worth it for these "just in case" scenarios.

THINGS THAT REALLY IMPRESSED ME: 1) They fit the strap to the weight of the vehicle in order to maximize your liklihood of success. Not one size fits all. They recommend choosing one of their 3 straps based upon the weight of the vehicle. More specifically 2-3 times the vehicle weight. (17,500 lbs, 24,000 lbs & 33,000 lbs). Why is this so critically important? Because if you buy a strap that is way to hefty, you will not get the kenetic energy stretch that is the whole point of using a kenetic energy "statch" strap. Moreover, a strap that is "over rated" for the vehicle weight will not achieve significant strech and this put enormous strain on the attachment points increasing the likelyhood of catastrophic failure. Conversely, if the strap is too light for the vehicle weight, you will get lots of strech, but it might break before the vehicle breaks free. 2) It comes with a user manual with rather detailed instructions and practical precautions on actual use. The fact that ARB offers 3 different straps for different vehicle weights (as opposed to one size fits all) shows that they really understand how kenetic energy recovery (snatching) works. They are not just some company trying to sell you a single, one size fits all product. Its worth every penny.

You will find umpteen videos and declarations about straps vs ropes vs chains vs cables on all forms of media……many will blather about the strap’s manufacture origin, sand in its fibers, UV exposure, drying it out after wet, blah, blah… Hook this strap to your vehicle w a 4T clevis, hook the other end to the stuck vehicle, the tree branch, the fence post, the stump, the whatever you want relocated, and stand on your vehicle…..I mean shift the gears and put those tires to WORK! You will relocate the stuck item……now throw it in the bed of your vehicle and drive on…..wrap it back up when you get home…. The above methods have worked for me for 40 yrs…..

Bought this because it got great reviews on the ToyotaWorld Forums for a good price, well made snatch strap by several people who have used one and do a lot of 4x4 offroading. I have a Tacoma 4x4 that weighs about 6k pounds loaded. I haven't used it and don't have a lot of experience so I relied on the recommendations of those that do.

Expensive Recovery Ropes are all the rage these days, after placements and being featured on youtube channels like matt's off road recovery. But for those of us who aren't making a living doing recoveries and just venture into the backcountry in our Jeeps or 4x4s, snatch recoveries are not something we perform all that often. And a strap fills the bill. This ARB strap is durable, lightweight, and affordable. It'll take up less space in your kit than a comparable recovery rope, and costs considerably less; but it'll still let you pull a buddy out of a stuck situation in a jam.
