Towing

If i wanted to bolt a towing hook on the rear bumper of my disco (just for recovery when offroading) would i be able to or would it just rip out of the bumper when i tried to tow another landy?
Cheers

hahahahahaha ahahahah hahahahahahahahaha
thas the funnyest thing I've seen on here fer ages
heeheeheeheeheehee

Er, do you think you need a stronger mount for pulling an 'orse box on tarmac or heaving couple of tons of Landy out of the mud?

Couldn't you just no-more nails it on?

didnt someone mention super glue !!!!!!!!!

Bungee cords wud do...............if yer jest towing annuva Landy offroad, in the mud, when it's bogged down and stuck.

I just used sellotape!

(Lucky Trewy was there with summat a bit more substantial to do the job properly!!! - i've just ordered another one by the way so we should probably think about getting out there again in the next few weeks!)

ffs, yer need ter git yer chassis weldeded oop furst!

Tis still fookin in there - they said they'd do it on Weds so i dropped it off Monday eve, phoned Thurs and they said they hadn't even fookin looked at it - lucky i didn't really need it over the weekend, feels like i'm missing a member of the family though! a fookin week for a poxy bit of weldin - useless - am getting increasingly fed up with useless people and broken promises! They've offered me a courtesy car so might take them up on it and see how it fares at Baldhu!

nothing handles like a courtesy car mate!

if its only for just helping you ouyt when you get stuck, why not just solder it on

as long as theres plenty o flux it should do the job!

I suggest rivets or if you want it to work possibly a set of jate rings from paddocks/craddocks.
Ive got some velcro but not sure thats strong enough.
I think jate rings will have to do http://www.okoffroad.com/gifs/stuff/jaterings-2.jpg
By the way any one else seen the "will me motor move in netrual" thread?Thats good too.

blue tac would be better, then he could move it around to wherever gives him the best angle to pull from

I wasn't going to reply this but then I couldn't hold back my laughter WHAT A T*WAT HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

fooks sake ian, i dont know why you hold back all the time! just let it out fer once

Guess he don't know the bumper aint held on by much
