I saw this on JeepKJ.

It's a bit pricey but a nice piece though.

I am definately getting one, not because I need another recovery point, but rather so I can flip my neighbours cars over and drag them down the street.

I like that it's aluminum. A lot lighter.

I was wanting to do this to a punk booty kid that parked in front of my garage right before I was leaving for work. He was towed away regardless. :twisted:

Not to be a jerk, but why don't you just put the strap in the receiver hitch and put the normal pin thru the strap? Everyone I wheel with does it that way and so have I for the last 10 years. I have never heard of anyone breaking or even bending a pin.

I don't disagree but if you're pulling at an angle I can see the corner of your receiver chafing the strap. Also, if people will buy it, why not sell it? lol

Sorry, I just see an increase in possible failure points. I'm with the strap in the receiver crowd... :?
