Winchline Recovery Flatlink Review and Install: Factor55
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- We've learned a closed system flat link, along with a bow shackle or soft shackle, is one of the safest winch systems in use. Not just any flatlink, but a US made, tested and certified recovery link from Factor55. We show you the details of why we chose this particular piece of recovery equipment to put at the end of our winchline, and how we attach it to our winch line thimble.
This is the first of many videos we'll be producing showcasing our ongoing education in the world of safe vehicle recovery techniques, and quality vehicle recovery gear. Come along with us!
As much as I like 4Runners and Tacoma’s the FJ will always be my favorite. I watch all your old FJ videos.
Thanks for watching! The FJ is our favorite too!
I love your sense of humor that you include in your videos. Thanks. 😂😂😂
drphibesrises thank you 😊
I STRONGLY recommend Southeast Overland for shackles. All lines/soft shackles are made in house, can be ordered custom, and the guys there are great to work with. Great video like always!
Thanks, will look into them.
Factor 55------for all your recovery needs. They know what they are doing.
Frank Simpson 🙂
Thanks for the show! I like that you guys kick it together everywhere.
Maurice Battle thanks!
Nice little vid.. I love the outtakes added at the end, & thanks makes it more real.
Love it , especially the" Hollywood "sun glasses thanks.😀
John Diaz thank you.
Great video! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Cool, I plan on a similar setup for my 4runner. I really like the flat link and soft shackles.
mykalbee awesome, totally what we liked too.
Treaty Oak has great shackles too
archerlucid thanks
Thanks for the laugh! :-) Great video as always.
vdub4utube thanks for watching
Overlanding is by no means cheap in that of itself. SO yes, I totally agree. In a sense, if you are going to do it, do it once, and do it best. Especially when it comes to safety equipment. Congratulations guys, another one, well done!!!
PS: Love the waving of the Flag... Oh, and pulling poor Merri? She's not the FJ, Mark!!!!
Kiss Kiss Thanks for watching and for sticking up for me. The things I do for this guy, right? 🤦♀️
@@WanderlostOverland Shame on your Mark!!! No love for you, for a whole month!!! hahaahahah!!!!
🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for seeking out Rich as a source. Most people wing it, for anyone else please find a I4WDTA certified trainer in your part of the country.
Michael Block of course, Rich is a wealth of knowledge. His class at LSTJ19 was great 💥
Try having a look at the new soft shackle from ARB I know you have them in US all the go here In Australia
Thanks! We'll definitely look at them.
I love watching all your guys videos. Very helpful and it looks like you guys have fun everytime. CAR
Russell Webb thanks for watching. 😆
Was wondering how y'all took the hook off the line. Did you cut it off or just re-splice the line? Love watching y'all.....Another great video!!!!!
Good question. In another video I saw the person cut the hook off. I guess that's the best option?
We cut it off right away. Didn't look like a very quality piece.
I also have to run daily with a front license plate. I also have a Factor55 Flatlink. What do you use for a license plate bracket. Keep up the good work on your videos.
We have a cheap flip-up bracket we found on Amazon. It doesn't flip up far enough though so we're on the lookout for something else.

Bryan Chichester thanks
Are you sure about wash the line with soap? Also store it wet? (Perhaps I'm wrong)
Giancarlo Rotta dish soap, like “Dawn” to get grease and grime out.
I would have lost that little c-clip a least twice during that process !
Ted Jackson Mark kept saying, “Don’t lose that clip!” “Watch that clip!” I thought about pretending to lose it for fun. 😉
@@WanderlostOverland I own a 07 tacoma that I bought new, this fall I'll be getting a 4Runner TRD Offroad! I can't wait!
Ted Jackson hope you enjoy your 4R as much as we do!
You guys kill me..
CHARLES S Hi. We try 😆
