Default G-force tie downs

I used my g force tie downs twice. the snap hooks are now completely bent up and useless.

My H&M, or M&H, they lasted me 5 years no problems at all.

Good Luck dealing with G-Force, they do NOT stand behind their products, I bought a new helmet several years ago, the lining rotted out in 6 months, their response was, too bad, buy another one, we don't service our products.

I bough a new helmet, just not as G-Force, never again will I but G-Force

Tri-State Towing in Westbury has some decent ones. Mine have lasted well. Get a flat hook not twisted so it won't hit the bottom of the car.,

http://www.snappinturtle.com/ made in USA, use 4-10,000 lb for car. I consider G-Force econo products. I don't use cheap helmets, firesuits or tiedowns. I've dealt with Snappin for some time now , they even made me some custom color straps for a boat.

Before you buy 5,000 straps you should check with the states you are going to be towing in. In California, all tie-down straps, must be equal to or greater than 10,000 LBS min.
