Bald Mtn Snow Run - cheap way to add front tow point/s?

[luked]

I want to go on the Jan Bald Mountain snow run. been up there in july/aug but never in the snow, sounds exciting.

I have a rear receiver that I can add a shackle to but the front is the problem.

Suggestions for good/strong front recover points? Not ready to buy a front bumper yet, lift first.

Any advice is apprieciated

I agree, cheaper, and better than a front hitch.

This is what I have. This price is cheap. I think I payed 170 total, bought it local.

Hooks on the sides reduce attack angle, I keep on hitting them. Hitch seems to stiffen the front, jeep drives better.

You have to drill a couple of holes to install it.

These are better for the same price:

that's what I have (c4x4), and they work great, very tough.

Same here (on the old XJ)... good quality.

Make sure you get the braces otherwise you might as well be wrapping a strap around your bumper. Also the clips are nice to keep the strap from falling off.

I think I have a set like this, I could sell for $20:
