Quick question..... Can you twist limit straps to reduce their operating length? Anyone done this?
I want some inch or so shorter ones but dont feel like dropping anther $50 on a pair.
 
twisting them will decrease the strength... move your mounts an inch.
 
Its a common practice Matty.
I have a rather extensive selection of limiting straps, what size do you need?

I'll have to double check what length i have but i believe i'll need 14-15" ones. I might just twist these ones first to see how it feels on climbs. Pretty sure i'll like the shorter length more.

Got to do eveything i can to keep up with the buttbuggy :D

Actually 2. but thanks anyway.

If you look close in this pic you can see the two straps coming from the unibody rails down to the center of the axle.

Why not use your winch?
 
looks like you have them mounted to the inside corner of the framerails. Just remount them on the outside corner, that should shorten the overall operating length by an inch or so
 
Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, but I believe it's to prevent unloading on hill climbs.

exactly! helps with traction on your front tires on steep climbs.

dont really want to mess with the mounts. Thats more work than necessary.
