I have no afiliation with them just an easy source of info.

And there you go!

1x 8,000kg snatch strap for almost any LR

Personally I prefer to use the 8,000kg straps on most 4wds. Makes the strap the fuse in the connection.

A failed strap makes a whip, metal makes a missile.

Probably a stupid question, I have a ARB deluxe winch bar on my disco2 if I want to fit these rings as recovery points where abouts would the optimal mounting points be on my bar? Thanks in advance.

Are the attach points between the bar and the vehicle good enough? I've seen a collection of bars (some with reputable brands) that have been ripped off the front of vehicles by snatch recoveries. Might be worth checking...
