Yeah. Thats why I'm wasting time drawing them up. Then all I have to do is give the scribbles to the laser cutter and have a couple dozen sets cut.

now a question... wht would this be better over a towbar in a recovery?
my towbar is bolted into the chassis in 4 different points, plus on the two tie down points.... so kinda 6ish points..... is that not a big recovery point for the car???

Tow bar is fine for most recoveries. Just don't loop the strap over the ball
