Rear Recovery point

Post by Disco Gofer »

My 93 Disco has a tow bar with a removable hook and want to know if its accepted to buy/ make an attatchment to slip into the same square tube with the rated cast hook on it? I got a couple of hooks from Supa cheap and want to pop them on before my first club trip next week end.
Being a Landy i mostly only need the hook at the rear to pull other out........................................BUT need to mount one on the front for looks too. Haha

I'm sure what you're planning will work fine, I went down a slightly different route & bolted my hook to the chassis.

Will see how long that statement lasts hahaha.

Mount it through the chassis like above, less time pissing around.

Just remember that if you do, put crush tubes into the chassis rail before tightening the bolts.
