Initially established as Prestige Sunroofs more than 40 years ago, Prestige Offroad was then added in 2010 after finding that no other business could offer the parts, quality of labour and customer service to 4WDers in our area. Our fitment methods guarantee you with the best aftermarket fitment possible, without compromise.
Choosing the correct snatch strap MBS to suit your recovery
To choose the correct strap, it needs a rating of two-to-three times the GVM of your vehicle. So if your vehicle weighs 2500kg, you need a strap with a minimum-breaking limit of 5000kg-7500kg. This is why 8000kg snatch straps are most commonly found in four-wheel drives, as they should cover this amount of load with some margin for error. If you tow a camper trailer or van, don’t forget to include this in your weight calculations as well.
Remember, When it comes to snatch straps it isn't a game of 'the highest MBS wins', Snatch straps are effective as they stretch up to 20%, and quickly snap back unleashing the stored energy to un-stuck your 4WD. If you select a strap that has a rating too high for your vehicle, it won't stretch enough to effectively recover your vehicle, and could shock load the system, sending weak parts flying.We have a range of 4WD recovery gear available in our store
