Evening all,

I'm looking in to putting some basic recovery equipment on to my td5 defender and was advised that a 2" receiver would make a better edition than jate rings at the rear. I have an adjustable tow bar attached wich hangs vey low and am taking it off as it catches the floor on even shallow slopes, it has the arms that attach to the chassis, so il have them already so could this set up be adapted to a rear recovery point? If anyone has any experience of this could I see a picture so I know roughly what to get. Will save me buying a full rear hitch when I have some of the parts already.

Cheers
Sean
 
Ah spot on! The receiver you have there is slightly different to what iv been looking at, I'm thinking that this one will bolt to the x member with the top 4 holes and the bottom two to the legs going to the chassis, then I can use that as my main recovery point, think that will be sturdy enough? Just had the x member replaced
