    What are you guys using for a good quality tow strap? I need to replace my cheap one from Lowes that snapped last week.

    I've got various ARB and GearAmerica straps but the one I use the most are HF cuz I can treat it like crap and not worry about all the money I spent on it .

    Too many, but not enough....
    If you are serious about quality, factor 55 only way to go. Absolutely will not find better and comes with a protective sleeve. No Chinese rebrands for me.

    I'd like to add that tow straps are for towing and rescue straps are for rescuing. You probably know that, but if you don't ... using the wrong one for the wrong thing can have serious consequences. Tow straps don't have stretch. Bad things happen if you try to use them to yank someone out of a stuck position.
