Mytee Products V-Bridle Strap 2" x 4' w/Snap Hooks w/Cordura Sleeve and Axle Straps, D Ring Middle, for Car Hauler, Rollback, Flat Bed, Tow Truck, Wreck & Recovery

What it is and why I reached for it

There are plenty of ways to grab a vehicle for a load-up, but the setups that reduce worry while protecting the car tend to earn a permanent spot on my truck. The Mytee V-bridle fits that category. It’s a 2-inch wide, 4-foot-per-leg bridle with integrated axle straps, Cordura sleeves for abrasion protection, snap hooks at the ends, and a centered D-ring to meet the winch line. The green hi-viz webbing is easy to spot under the bumper or between suspension bits, and the assembly is rated with a 3,333 lb working load limit and a 10,000 lb break strength.

I’ve used it to bring low-slung sports cars onto a rollback, to coax modern EVs without obvious hook points, and to move older classics where cosmetics matter. In each case, the goal is the same: build a secure, symmetrical bite without crushing plastic, scratching paint, or tearing boots. This V-bridle makes that straightforward.

Build quality and design

• Webbing and stitching: The 2-inch webbing is dense and notably abrasion resistant. Stitching is consistent and well placed at stress points. The high-visibility green isn’t just a styling choice; it helps you confirm placement at a glance—even in dim conditions or under a car with limited clearance.
• Cordura sleeves: The sleeves over the axle-strap sections are thick enough to shrug off light edge contact and keep the webbing from getting chewed up. I still use edge protectors around sharper steel or cast edges, but for painted surfaces, crossmembers, and control arms, these sleeves do the job.
• Hardware: The center D-ring is beefy and cleans up the connection to a winch hook or shackle. The snap hooks are compact, easy to manipulate with gloves, and seat positively. On my unit, one hook gate felt a touch looser than I’d like out of the box—not a functional failure, but enough to warrant a quick inspection and a dab of lubricant. After that, it behaved.
• Lengths and geometry: With 4-foot legs, I can reach most factory-approved tie-down or wrap points without bunching the bridle or pinching it against air dams. The geometry is easy to keep symmetrical, which matters for predictable loading.

Setup and use

My routine with this V-bridle is simple:

1. Identify proper attachment points per the vehicle manufacturer. If there aren’t accessible hooks, I’ll use the axle straps to wrap around lower control arms or designated subframe sections, keeping clear of brake lines, wiring, and CV boots.
2. Position the Cordura sleeves where the webbing meets the component. The sleeve is sacrificial; the webbing isn’t.
3. Connect the snap hooks to the axle-strap D-rings or directly to rated points, confirm both legs are equalized, and clip the winch hook to the bridle’s center D-ring.
4. Keep the bridle angle conservative. The published working load limit is 3,333 lb; as with any bridle, the effective WLL diminishes as the leg angle widens. I aim to keep each leg at 60 degrees or less relative to the centerline.
5. Tension slowly, confirm the car settles evenly, and re-check after the first foot of travel.

The high-viz webbing makes it easy to spot twists or routing mistakes before they become a problem. The bridle also cooperates with race ramps and low-approach load angles because the webbing stays flat and doesn’t “grab” bodywork like a J-hook can.

Performance under load

Pull after pull, the V-bridle has stayed quiet: no sudden shifts, no suspicious creaks, and—importantly—no scuffs on control arms or front valances when I position the sleeves correctly. The assembly remains supple even in cold weather, and the hardware hasn’t picked up burrs or deformation. Using moderate winch speed, the bridle tracks straight and keeps the car centered on the deck without needing to futz with leg lengths mid-load.

On heavier front ends—performance EVs and full-size sedans—the 3,333 lb WLL is sufficient for controlled loading when you respect angle factors and surface conditions. I don’t use it as a recovery snatch device; this is a controlled-load tool for rollbacks and flatbeds, not a kinetic recovery line.

Protection for modern vehicles and classics

This is where the V-bridle shines. Newer vehicles often lack obvious front hook points, and low front fascias leave little room for hardware. The integrated axle straps let me wrap rated components cleanly while keeping metal away from painted surfaces. On classic cars with fragile chrome or irreplaceable trim, the soft, wide webbing and Cordura interface have been gentle. I still use fender covers and foam when necessary, but I’ve had no marring when the sleeves are placed thoughtfully.

For low-profile cars, the flat profile and modest hardware footprint help you work underneath without snagging fascia lips. The green color also shows clearly on camera if your shop documents tie-down points for liability purposes.

Durability and maintenance

After dozens of uses, mine shows normal grime but little wear. The Cordura sleeves have light polishing where they’ve rubbed against painted steel, as expected, but no cuts. The webbing edges remain crisp without fraying. Hardware finish has held up to rain and road spray.

My maintenance routine:
- Rinse with fresh water after salty or dirty jobs.
- Air-dry fully before storage to prevent mildew.
- Inspect hooks, gates, and stitching each week; retire immediately if you see cut fibers, melted spots, or bent hardware.
- Store in a dry bin to keep grit off the sleeves.

One small nit: the initial packaging on my unit allowed the webbing to rub slightly in transit, leaving cosmetic marks that disappeared after the first rinse. Functionally, no issue—but a tighter wrap or sleeve from the factory would help.

Limitations and cautions

• Snap hook gates: On one hook, the gate tension felt light from day one. It still latched, but I keep an eye on it. If you prefer overbuilt hardware, you may want to pair the bridle with your own shackles at the ends or upgrade hooks to your preference, provided ratings match or exceed the system.
• WLL awareness: Like any bridle, your safety margin depends on your angles. If you routinely pull very heavy front ends or work at wide angles, step up to a higher-rated assembly or adjust your technique.
• Not a recovery rope: This is for controlled pulls and loading. Don’t use it for dynamic recoveries or snatch operations.

Value and alternatives

For a single-assembly solution that includes axle straps, Cordura sleeves, snap hooks, and a central D-ring, this V-bridle hits a sweet spot. You can certainly piece together separate axle straps, protective sleeves, and a chain bridle, but you’ll spend more time managing parts and increase the chance of metal-on-metal contact. If you need even higher ratings or specialty hooks, there are heavier-duty rigs out there, albeit at a higher cost and with more bulk.

Who will appreciate it

• Flatbed and rollback operators who need a fast, repeatable, paint-safe front grab.
• Shops regularly moving low-profile performance cars or classics where protection matters.
• Operators dealing with EVs and modern vehicles that have limited factory hook points.

Final recommendation

I recommend the Mytee V-bridle for anyone who loads vehicles onto rollbacks or flatbeds and wants a clean, protective, and predictable front-end attachment. It balances durability with finesse: the webbing and Cordura sleeves protect surfaces, the 2-inch, 4-foot legs reach common points without drama, and the center D-ring keeps the pull aligned. While I’d like to see slightly firmer snap hook gates and tighter factory packaging, those are minor quibbles against a tool that has consistently made my workflow safer and faster. Use it within its ratings, mind your angles, and it will earn its spot on your truck.
