Modern and heavy trucks today are all equipped with built-in pull, tow and lift fixation points. To prevent damage to the trucks during towage or salvage work, truck manufacturers always provide a manual on how and with which fixation means must be used to transport the truck safely and without damage due to salvage work to the desired location.

KingTow’s truck towing system is specifically designed for use in the truck manufacturer’s built-in pull, tow and lift fixation points. Under certain circumstances it is also possible to lift or hoist the truck to a limited extent. A condition is, of course, that the towage and recovery system is used correctly so that overloading of the system and damage to the truck is prevented. This professional towing and recovery system should not be missing from the equipment of recovery trucks of salvage companies that are active in the field of truck recovery.
