Keeper 02942 30 Recovery Strap Review

Very strong tow strap. If you live in an area where snow is forecast for most of the winter, these will come in handy. Easy to use, light and compact. All the time I used it to help others get out of a bad situation. It does the job!

Have used it intermittently for 5 years. The strap is holding up well but unfortunately it is starting to wear out to know its fault. This is a great solid strap for the money. When it wears out, I will buy it again with great pleasure.

I bought one from a farm and ranch and it was their last. Since then I've been looking for another one and was glad to have found it here. The 30 foot length is just right for use as an extension or wrapped around a large tree. Measuring 4 inches wide, it's easy to see, very sturdy, and feels premium. I've only used it once so far to hoist a 5000 lb winch up a mountain and it got the job done with ease.

Rigid as you need it for anything but the biggest trucks and then you probably need a tow truck. The loop fits my 2" receiver. I usually put the receiver pin in the loop and then pull on it, not through a bead or something unreliable. Unbeatable price Fits under the driver's seat in my Titan and never leaves that place except for use.

LISTEN! I've been using this tow strap for a few months to unhook my Dodge Dakota with the raised bracket (works perfectly). However, today the support wasn't enough and I was pulled out by a 2014 Cummins 2500 piston and then got stuck. The wheels got stuck about two feet from the most disgusting mud anyone had ever seen, and needless to say Dakota's Jeep and Dodge couldn't figure it out in four minutes. A tow truck had to be called using this harness as the main link along with the chains for…

This recovery harness has seen many uses. It eventually became unreliable after my buddy drove his 4WD SUV through some of the worst mountainous off-road terrain we could find. He disassembled his car's engine and intake system. I used this harness to tow his disabled 4x4 full of gear up one of the worst mountain trails back to civilization. We covered about 17 miles of this belt pulling on my truck and SUV, pulling over rocks and boulders when the slack broke, crossing several small creeks…

This is a good harness if you know its limitations. This is a large woven burley belt suitable for DRIVEN a vehicle, not bucking or bump loading. Basically, despite what it says, this belt has very, very little stretch and is not safe for jerk recovery. Snatch is a technical procedure that involves accelerating a car and if you don't know how to do it then don't learn it from this test. A little stretch means you're using a lot of force trying to pull with it, and you'll break either the strap…

A great piece of must-have gear. Even if you don't drive off-road and such, it's still very good to have in your car/truck/SUV. I received it in September 2014 and it is now March 2015. I bought it and put it under the passenger seat in my old 250cc Dodge Ram 4x4. Since then I have towed 5 cars. A small SUV driving down a hill. Full size truck in the snow. Cadillac drowned in the mud. And the list goes on. A car was towed several kilometers. The strap was dragged down the street, pulled over…
