Recovery Rings

(1/2) > >>

davidlandy:
stupid question this probably,

but I have Jate rings that I am going to fit to my chassis in the place left by the standard lashing rings.

now do I tighten the bolts on them up full whack or do I leave some slack in them to allow the rings to move?

thanks for your help

stefan:
I sort of left mine tight but still movable, otherwise I found that if you do them up too tight, they still move when you try to recover with them, and then it's a swine to get the rope/strop/shackles off without having to undo them!!

turtle:
Hi Dave,


 You should leave them a bit slack, to allow them to swing freely. Otherwise if they are tight its a swine to attach ropes etc.

Regards

Phil

davidlandy:
Wise werds chaps

will leave em a little loose then

thanks

Dave

Duncan Brown:
not to loose, that the bang and clatter, just tight so they can move with ease
