I have a "mixed bag" of recovery stuff, as MM has said, it will grow over time.
Eg 2x snatch straps, one is a Just Strap the other is a Black Rat, snatch block from xxx?, rated shackles, winch ext strap and tree trunk protector are from somewhere else, drag chain from TJM, gloves are from Bunnings!!!, bag was outgrown and turned into a box that inlcudes other gear as well...

In some cases, it appears more cost effective to buy a "kit" from somewhere but check the quality of ALL the included pieces and ask yourself do you need all the bits that have been bundled together. Other times you may be better off buying each piece separate, but at least you get to choose what you want.

Remember these pieces could save your life one day so keep them in good nic.

You can "never" have too many shackles... somehow they just keep disapearing - they must be related to socks somehow

Its a spare... never used it.
In fact I went out checked after my post and found I have 3 snatch straps, one I have used quite a few times - the other two are brand new.
