Default Good recovery strap

Need a good recovery strap. Well this weekend went bad and we only had chains. Needless to say the only way to get me out was yanking and the chain busted. The chain was no match for a f150 burried to the frame and a f250 on 38's

Get a steel cable. Have a little more give than a chain. Straps break.

Don't use a cable to jerk it's to rigid still and flexes your frame in turn moving your bed and body together causing damage... Get a god 20' 3 inch strap and some shackles

Either one depends what you do most. I'm just getting a warn winch and a few items to keep in my recovery kit bag.

Yeah I'm leanin tward the ****** strap cause what I've read it's more effective in trying to jerk some one out.
Yeah and a winch would be awesome but very expensive.
