Recovery Kits

A quality recovery kit should be the number one piece of equipment in any recovery arsenal. A sturdy pair of gloves, snatch strap and d-shackles are the bare minimum for any recovery to be performed safely. Additional items such as a winch extension strap, tree trunk protector, recovery blanket, shovel, recovery hitch, tyre deflator and snatch block can also be added to a kit.
Simply carrying these items is not always enough and all 4WDers should make themselves familiar with the correct, safe vehicle recovery techniques. It is also respectful to other drivers to carry a recovery kit in order to not risk damage to somebody else’s equipment should you require their assistance.
