Two straps may be joined if for some reason one has insufficient length.Never join two straps with a bow shackle, as this may become a lethal missile in the event of strap breakage.
Snatch block can be used with a winch to halve the amount of load or it can be used to alter the direction of pull if straight ahead isn’t the best option.
The stranded vehicle can assist by trying to drive at the same time the recovery vehicle makes the pull. Just make sure not to dig in deeper or if the recovery is successful run over the strap.
Strap can lose up to 20% strength when wet. Something to keep in mind when crossing.
