Re: recovery points ?

To be honest, the front eyes are not actually rated recovery points, have a look at ARB front recovery points for the front. Would a beefy towbar not work for the back? You might want to see if anyone can fabricate rear recovery points if you don't want to use a towbar. what do you think about some...

Perfect excuse to get rid of the plastic and to fit a decent aftermarket bumper!! I totally agree with you but the insurance companies here in the UK don't like them one bit. Without a winch, it's also illegal to drive with one fixed to a vehicle. If we lived in SA, or outside the EU for that matte...
