The ARB Premium Recovery Kit is the complete kit, the one that leaves nothing to buy later. It is built around the ARB 17,600 lb snatch strap, the strap that has won recovery strap comparisons in Australia and elsewhere, with a genuine 20% stretch that takes the shock out of a recovery instead of putting it into your chassis.
The updated bag is as much of the product as the contents. It uses a 600gsm outer that wipes clean and keeps a wet, sandy strap from soaking everything else, with heavy duty buckles, reflective strips and multiple compartments and sewn in shackle holders so every item has a home. The point of a kit over loose gear is that when you need it, you are not emptying a bag onto the sand looking for a shackle.
What's Included:
ARB 17,600 lb snatch strap (ARB705LB)
Tree trunk protector
Winch extension strap
ARB Ultra Light snatch block
Rated bow shackles
Leather palm recovery gloves
ARB recovery damper
600gsm large recovery bag with named compartments and sewn in shackle holders
Features
The ARB 17,600 lb Snatch Strap The kit is built around ARB's most awarded strap, with a genuine 20% stretch. The elasticity is what makes a snatch recovery work and what stops the shock load landing on the recovery points.
Includes The Competition Snatch Block ARB includes its Ultra Light snatch block in this kit, the same block used by elite drivers in some of the world's toughest events and in military applications. It roughly doubles winch pulling power on a double line pull.
600gsm Wipe Clean Outer A 600gsm outer shell that cleans easily and keeps the bag and its contents from getting damp. Recovery gear that lives wet does not last.
Everything Has A Place Compartments and sewn in shackle holders, so the kit is inventoried at a glance and nothing is loose in the bottom of the bag when you open it in the dark.
Reflective Strips Reflective detailing on the bag exterior, which matters because recoveries happen at dusk and in the rain more often than in daylight.
CE Certified ARB states the kit is CE certified.

Installation
Type: No installation. Recovery equipment · Time: Minutes to rig a recovery · Tools: Everything needed to rig is in the bag, except a second vehicle or an anchor · Difficulty: Moderate, technique dependent
Recovery is the most dangerous thing most people do with a four wheel drive. Use rated recovery points only, keep bystanders well clear of any loaded line, and lay a damper over it. Read the technique guidance before you need it, not during. A kit does not make a recovery safe; knowing the sequence does.

About ARB
ARB started in 1975 in a Melbourne garage, when Tony Brown began building bull bars for the four wheel drives crossing Australia's outback, and it has grown into the largest 4x4 accessories maker in the southern hemisphere. Recovery gear is the part of the range where that history matters most: ARB's straps, shackles, blocks and boards are built for country where a failed recovery is measured in days of walking, and the company publishes its ratings rather than leaving buyers to guess.
In North America ARB operates from Auburn, Washington as Air Locker Inc., backing every product with a US warranty program. Prestige Truck is an authorized ARB dealer. Every piece of recovery gear we ship is a genuine US-market unit with full ARB North America warranty coverage and the rating printed on it by the people who tested it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers on specs, fit and support
What is actually in the kit?
ARB publishes the contents as: ARB 17,600 lb snatch strap (ARB705LB); Tree trunk protector; Winch extension strap; ARB Ultra Light snatch block; Rated bow shackles; Leather palm recovery gloves; ARB recovery damper; 600gsm large recovery bag with named compartments and sewn in shackle holders. That is ARB's own list, not our summary.
Is the strap big enough for my truck?
ARB's rule is two to three times the gross vehicle mass of the lighter vehicle. The 17,600 lb strap in this kit therefore suits vehicles between roughly 5,800 and 8,800 lb GVM, which covers most four wheel drives. Heavier rigs should step up a strap size.
What does the snatch block do?
Rigged as a double line pull it roughly doubles your winch pulling power, and it lets you redirect a pull around an obstacle to an off angle anchor. It is the most useful thing in the bag if you have a winch.
Do I need a damper as well?
A recovery damper is included in this kit. Use it on every loaded line, and use a second one if you are running two loaded segments.
Can I buy the bag on its own?
Yes. ARB sells the bags separately: the large bag is ARB501A, the small is ARB502A and the compact is ARB503A. This kit ships with the large one.
What is the warranty?
ARB publishes a 3 year warranty covering the kit. Individual straps and shackles are consumable safety equipment: inspect them before every use and retire on condition, not on age.

Look is great. 100 lbs
Look is great. 100 lbs lighter than my 2nd pick. Lid lock and opening are smooth. Only minor knock I give is the the tie down hooks are hard to install - thinking I should have done them before installing.

A must have
I really like this mat. I was apprehensive at first but, the mat does a great job of keeping things from sliding around without having to secure it. perfect fit. But i think i will be adding some short screws to secure the mat to the DECKED system.

I never knew how much I needed this
As with all BAK covers, the quality is amazing. What I didnt fully appreciate until installing was the ease of opening - especially in a lifted truck. No more need to find the right handhold. Just roll it back with a single hand. Its also great to see out of my rear window when fully open - something you lose with the fold back covers. Customer service is awesome. I has an installation question and the representative stayed on the line as I adjusted an alignment to ensure I did it properly.

Better then expected.
Searched for about 6 months to find the tonneau cover. I really wanted the security of a hard top without sticking above the bed rails it checked those boxes. I also did not want to drill my truck bed. The install was super simple my wife and I had it on the truck in about a half an hour.

The toolbox is nice. I
The toolbox is nice. I think Ill get a lot of years of service out of it. I like how the lid opens and the tie downs are a nice touch. It seems to be well built. And tough. Im pleased with my purchase and would buy another one.
