Rear recovery point(s)..

<< < (2/3) > >>

crazymac:
On the jate rings question, a mate has cut a hole in his bumper in the middle, which exposes the two holes for the towbar fixing, he then fitted two jate rings through these holes. The sit in a V shape and make a great recovery point.

If you go the tank guard route, then you won't go wrong with the guardian one, its what I have and its the mutts nuts.

J.D.:
I have a southdown guard fitted to Phoenix, but the recovery eye tends to be buried when you get stuck so I made a bracket which fits round the rear crossmember with a NATO hitch bolted to it, sits higher so easier to access in the stick stuff.

Range Rover Blues:
Southdown also made a recovery eye for their gaird whcih presents a large hole in a vertical plate, below it is a high-lift jacking point which is damn useful.

Guardian also do one for their guards. Very handy piece of kit, I keep mine on all the time, only sticking the drop plate on when i'm towing.

Range Rover Blues:
I used to do with mine, the recovery point also protected the trailing electrical plug.  Thing is I think I'm better off having people drive into a NATO hitch than getting stuck under a tank guard :lol:
