Hello Together,

Just wondering whether the hook on the OL winch bull bar is a proper recovery point?
It looks not so strong the the guys today mentioned id does not like one.

tried calling OL but they are closed and will need it tomorrow.

Also have the Mitch hitch which uses the rear recovery hook so I guess I would need a recovery point which fit's in the tow bar slot?

Thanks a lot

Steve

Assume the OL one is like the ARB. The recovery point is not connected to the bar but is the OEM connected to the chassis.

I bought one from Tigerz11 I think it was less than $30 it fits in the Mitch hitch and has a rated shackle on it for rear recovery. It fits nicely in the cubby Box where the Original hitch used to live.

yes bought a hitch receiver for the back but like to have one or better two recovery points for the front and OL bull bar only has a single tow point
