Recovery points: cost?

**discomarsh** · 27th April 2010, 07:34 AM

I got a quote over the phone from a Sydney LR specialist for $500 for a front recovery point. Does this sound right?

$90 for a pair from 4x4intelligence

rated ?

Rated hooks (10,000Ib each) from ARB or Supercheap - about $25 a pair.

Mine were $60 for the pair from Troutbeck.

Is it possible to attach the recovery points to my steel TJM bullbar? Will they hold under pressure?

I have read different threads on this and can't seem to get a straight answer, my thoughts would be that you can as the bullbar is attached to the chassis?

How is the bull bar attached to the chassis - often with mild steel or low tensile bolts. Also is the bull bar itself strong enough to take a snatch - they are designed to resist a pushing force from the front not take a pulling force from the front.

Unless I had the OK in writing from TJM I would not use it and put recovery points on the chassis.

Thanks for the reply, just got off the phone with TJM and they said they dont have any rated bullbars and would be better off attaching the recovery points to the chassis. Does anyone know where to mount the recovery points on the D2? I have looked under the car on the chassis and can;t find anywhere that seems suitable as the bullbar seems to get in the way wherever they go.

Any ideas?

I fitted a set of $90 for a pair from 4x4intelligence they are rated. they bolt on where the steering rod protector bolts on. I live in Beechboro if you want to have a look.

Same with the Troutbeck ones, they are attached where the crush cans fix onto the chassis rails.

The points themselves are 12mm thick and they come with a 10mm thick backing plate that goes on the other side of the chassis rail too on each side, so longer HT bolts were needed to fit them.
