    Scallops' Recovery Points

    Folks - Following a request from SVX 37, here are a few pics of my recovery points - front are twin hooks through chassis from which I use an equaliser strap (tree trunk protector).

    Rear is a shackle block in the towbar.

    Front...







    Rear...sorry about the pic - forgot to take a close up today so here it is at the Leichhardt River crossing Savannah way, just out from Burketown...

    Thanks heaps Scallops! Where did you go to get these or did you do yourself?

    Sorry Scallops - I just read the previous thread and saw you have already answered my question. I will try ARB down here in Melbourne unless other readers have suggestion in Melbourne to get something similar.

    Scallops, did they go one after the bullbar?

    I was looking at a pair this morning and thinking of doing the same at the front, but I suspect I'd need to drill the rails and remove the bar (and winch and lights and ... to much!). I think I might just try for some JATE rings on the front.

    They went on after the bullbar - no drilling required.

    These hooks are about $20.00 each and ARB etc will have them.

    SVX - I too use a receiver in the tow hitch at the rear.

    Just looked at the front of mine and realised the steering protector covers that portion of the rails very nicely, so nothings visible to bolt on to. I'd also have to modify the mounting brackets for the protection plate (its a Troutbeck one). Oh well nothing's ever simple and easy as it seems
