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
8 metres gets a bit close sometimes... lol
You might get a towball through your window... but its still on the car!!!

Think about it - maybe you can pick up a cheap tree trunk protector……

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.
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!

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?
