Strong and reliable recovery points are essential for off-road driving, but a lack of industry standards regarding rated tow points has caused confusion among 4WD drivers for many years. In light of this, ARB aims to set the industry benchmark for the design, testing, and selection of recovery points by 4WD users. These issues include the existence of dubious, untested mounting positions, confusion regarding the selection of rated shackles and straps, and the fact that typical tow points cannot safely handle the stress generated by angled pulls during vehicle recovery. By using an engineered recovery train, ARB aims to ensure that each vehicle-specific recovery point is rated for use with a 4.75-tonne bow shackle and an 17,600lb (approx. 7,983kg) snatch strap, making it easy for each customer to find the optimal recovery point.
