Thread: Disco 1 recovery point mounting.

So I've got the recovery points for a Disco 1 and I'll be looking to mount them where the stock front bumper bolts to the chassis.
I've looked around for ideas on this and other fora but cannot find any real information about whether I should be reinforcing this area before mounting the JATE rings.

If it is advisable to reinforce the area, what is an acceptable method of reinforcing? Plate steel welded on either side of the chassis? Crush tubes? Box it in?

Thanks in advance.

Tom.

I have put steel recovery points on mine without reinforcement. This seems to work fine so far. I did replace the bolts though.
