Advantages Over Steel Shackles:

How To Use:

1. Open Gator-Jaw shackle by loosening and slipping off loop over knot
2. Thread through eye of Bubba Rope or strap and through tow point
   1. Check your vehicle’s owner’s manual for proper attachment points
   2. Do Not attach to bumper, trailer hitch ball or sharp edged tow point

4. Pull as normal. Gator-Jaw shackles are designed to take the load without stretching

Honestly I liked them a lot, they look much safer than the steel shackle but...they are superexpensive. Does anybody has actual experience with those?

Im with you. Too much expensive compared with the normal shackles but if you look for the safety side it will not damage the both cars will it hitting the cars

worth trying! do you know anybody who sell them in Dubai? if not, we can do a group order from USA

It's a good idea

Some Off-Road shops do sell it locally , and some individuals over Facebook .

disadvantages Over Steel Shackles:-
- Safe functional rate is 1/3 of breaking rate . ( 30000 * 1/3 = 10000 lb ) = 4.75 Ton
- All viking ( snatch ) materials ( including ropes & soft shackles ) have a relatively short life cycle due to stretch mechanism ( 100 - 120 pulls ) .
- price is X10 times the metal shackle .

I would happily pay 500 Dh for a viking recovery rope as I believe its a great investment , in the mean time just cant justify a soft shackle of 300 Dh each .

Blingmytruck.com - Keeps the Liros 6 Ton and 10 Ton. 6 Ton price is AED 160. The 10 Ton is priced at AED 180.

Offroad Zone have Bubba ropes, but I don't think they have the soft shackles...
