Don't know if I'm telling you something you already know but you will want to spin them around when you use them so the pin is resting on your recovery loops and the snatch or equaliser strap can choose its own angle on the bow side of shackle. I would also recommend only wearing them when needed for recovery. I put mine on to try and save time if I needed them running the gauntlet to the barge at Fraser and did them up finger tight. I forgot to take them off till about 5 km down the corrugated inland road and only had 1 left. I should have done them tighter . However when using for recovery do them up finger tight then back them off 1/2 a turn to mark sure they don't bind up or you might not get them undone. But hey you have a prado , you may only need them to recover Nissans.

Nan bar, ARB intesity ones are ridiculously overpriced. As you can see they are identical minus the ARB logo. They work fantasticly well too!!
Are they identical as in same manufacturer, materials, mounting brackets, LED's and the "only" difference is the ARB badge or do they just look the same?
