no need to worry about a towball through a window, you will get the whole car!!! i think it is more likely to be a tree trunk protector and the guy is an imbecile if he used it as a snatch strap.

Yeh it'd have to be tree trunk protector/load equiliser strap :roll:

8 metres gets a bit close sometimes... lol

You might get a towball through your window... but its still on the car!!! :D

problem is some poor basted who has just bought a 4x4 for the first time and is on a budget might just buy this and think it is a great buy. That is until they go to use it and do panel or people damage. :shock: God knows when I first got into this sport I bought second hand things by trusting strangers down at the local market, looking back now damn I was lucky! :oops:

Just been messaging with the seller, he says it's definitely a 3 metre bunjy and TJM have marked it as such.
Might be ok to use in situations where a large gap isn't available and you take it easy

I wonder what the load rating is? :shock:
