Can anybody offer advice on the front towing/recovery points on the Puma.

Is the standard one ok, or is it better to upgrade.

Iam told the bull bar should not be used for such things????

Don't use the bullbar as not designed for recovery and also don't use existing towing point.

Opposite Lock at Nerang have blank recovery points for $25 each. Just need to drill holes to suit. Or Philco here has front steering guards which have a recovery point incorporated.

Thanks for that, i will be buying one of Philco's guards, when he s got a few more done, in the mean time, i require a quick fix, the opposite lock ones sound ok, will one do or should it be 2?????
