Looks the mutz nuts....BUT.... ask him for the rated SWL of the strap and the bow shackels too.
(As he has only quoted the braking strength which can be misleading when doing comparisons.)

Can these be fixed to the Tow rings already on the car or do I need to buy Tow points which I have seen on here.
Like I say I'm new to this.
Pay and Play is only 10 miles from me I'm dying to get kitted out.
Strap orderd thanks chaps.

Where do these tow points fix?

Nitromotor fitted his to the bullbar mounts on the B I think.
Pauls piccy

Mine are through drilled out holes in the chassis and bumper mounts front

The rear has been upgraded since this pic, with longer straight through bolts for extra strength.

This is one of my hooks, from procomp.
I have one at each side on the front, I drilled out the existing M10 to M12 and made a new hole for the other ones so the hooks are secured in place with two M12 bolts each.
