What if I need to pull 15t? Can I use this and trailer hook, both together? Or its got nothing to do with frame strenght, but geargox/transfer case etc?

On the flat, I'm sure it would pull more than 15 ton but 8 is the only figure I've seen LR put their name to.

What are you pulling?

Could you use a couple of pulley blocks to halve the effort?

Once it gets rolling it should be fine, just make sure the air brake is released. Laughing

LR seem to endorse it for this D5

 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

For the stunt with the crane they didn't use the recovery eyes - they bolted extra metalwork to the chassis. frame.


edit: well, if DSL says they don't have a chassis, who am I to argue. Laughing

Remember the old days when we all went on factory visits and we casually referred to “the chassis”? Boy did we get told off and it was a frame, not a chassis! Laughing

I had the same bloke as “tour guide” on 2 of my tours so knew second time round to get the word “chassis” in a fair few questions second time round. It mutated to “chaaaaadder frame” by the end. Laughing
