If you don't have them....get them.

Recent runs have revealed the need for all vehicles to have a front and rear recovery point. This is part of the NAXJA required equipment, but non-NAXJA runs do not have requirements, however common sense will dictate that you need to have somewhere to hook a strap.

Help us all out here, the last thing anyone wants to do is yank on your sway bar, axle, or rock rail.

No harm, no foul, but lets make this a priority as a chapter to educate those that do not have them, to get them. We did it with Fire Extinguishers, we can do it with recovery points.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding but, I'm not sure that'd pass tech inspection.
They have to be tied into the frame with brackets.

Hooks mounted to factory bumper brackets, without reinforcements, would fail tech.

Again....if anyone has any doubts if they will pass tech...PM me NOW!

either the factory tow hook brackets or a set from c4x4 or hi-country which I hear are not going to close after all.
