thought jate rings were available for tow bar fitted vehicles? sure I saw an option on my travels
 
wilky. pm sent.

with regards to jate rings, mines had the holes welded up and brackets fitted instead so jate rings are a no go....

the recovery ring was just fairly minimal and keeps well away from the tow hitch. cheap too. natos are too much for me i'm afraid

your putting a lot of faith and possibly your life into a bent bit of rod and someones welding skills. With one of those recovery rings though!! :blabla: :D
 
these really are putting faith in omeone elses welding? bet he doesn't have insurance to make them either!!
