That sounds right, 2100. He says in one of the videos that all of the magic happens in that rope. It somehow transfers more power to the truck being pulled than a chain, tow strap, etc.

Bubba ropes are a thing. Surprised I haven't heard them until now. Used by the Military and DOT approved.

Dumb question... are the two hooks on a super duty heavier duty than what's on an f150? Like Is the hook itself beafier? Do they use stronger bolts? Or completely the same?

As I recall, by looks, I'd say the SD hooks are heavier duty. I am unaware of any ratings that Ford revealed on those. I think they are 12.9 grade bolts, aren't they?
