Recovery points

I used to have these on my landy but on the last trip out they have come loose and come off. does anybody know where I could get these from.

If they were loose enough to drop off they wouldn't have been much use for recovery! Good job you didn't need them.

I forgot to put the nuts on the bolts through the chassis hence the bolts coming out and losing them my fault really.

Knowing how easy they bend , I would not want to use them for a recovery unless it was an emergency. they are described as towing eyes. You may want to look for something a bit stronger if you are planning on being recovered regularly.
Cheers

they are not recovery points, they are tie downs.. don't recover via them unless you want to die

go google jate rings and fit them instead

Good to know. I'm not sure I could get jate rings in there as the steering guard is there as the bolts that hold it on go threw those tie downs.

I have a steering guard and jates.However, does your bumper also attach using the same bolt? looks on your photo like it does,If yes, then may be too tight to use jates.

Cheers

the bump looks chunky enough to maybe have recovery points welded/fitted to it... but this is out of my knowledge..more experienced will know where to fit them to make it cope.

If you really want some recovery eyes I've some you can have but as already said, there only really for Tarmac use

I would lose the flash bumper and fit something with recovery points. Standard landy bumper with recovery eyes on the mounting points always worked for me.

They aren't recovery eyes, they are tie down points, I wouldn't even use them for towing never mind recovery.

I'll have a look I think possibly welding some steel rings to the bumper maybe a good idea.

I think I'd prefer something that bolts on like this

Over something that welds on Dan

It's only for the front as I'm okay for the rear suppose that's all I'll need hey Rob to pull you out in a couple of weeks hehe.

Either swap the steering guard for one with recovery points, or

Your bumper looks like my old one and you could fit some swivel recovery eyes if cut some holes

They will work perfectly.

The motorist who finds them with his tyre (i would think bolt is still in it sitting up like a spike)or the biker who gets thrown off because of hitting them with their tyre will be impressed by your stupidity in forgeting the nuts!

They come off when I was going threw water whilst laning so no chance of any of that happening and whilst accidents happen we are not all perfect.
