Recovery Gear Questions

I just purchased a Warn M8000 and have now been looking at recovery gear that is needed to go along with it. The main things I think I should get are a tree saver, snatch block, a tow strap, and a few more D rings. I have been looking at the recovery kits that come with all of that including the Quadratec kit (http://www.quadratec.com/products/95115_0000_07.htm) although I am not sure about the quality, and the ARB kit (http://www.quadratec.com/products/92144_4209.htm) which is over double the price. Also, I have looked at just piecing together all of the things I think I need. If anyone could give me their opinion and why, or have an idea on a different route I should go instead of the ones I have listed above, that would be great. Thanks in advance!

Eddie made a good thread about this. Thick it may be a sticky in the general off-road section. Either way, I carry 2 tree savers, a snatch block, an extra length section of strap. I also have 5-6 extra rings.

Thank you both for the help, I am just not sure if I want to buy a kit or piece one together myself.

Go to Murdoch's. They have a badass selection to piece together yourself. Will give you a good idea of prices. Buy the right d rings though. Look at the weight rating on them.
 
I pieced my kit together and went with ARB tree strap and snatch strap. They are the biggest ones they make. I went with the largest snatch block from Warn. All over kill for the JK but I dont always wheel with other JKs. A lot of times Im with fullsize rigs, so thats why I went overkill. I do believe I am going to get a smaller snatch block for the JK though and move the one I have to my Suburban.
