A shackle is fitted to the hook. The one you have (drivers side with a smaller hook at the back?) isn't rated.Originally posted by Wolfracer View PostDo you know that, with a 50 character limit, it'sComment

So the 2 recovery points aren't rated????
2 big round holes I put my shackles through.... and yes, there is a hook set slightly further back on drivers side.
Confused.

The big round holes are definatly not rated, they are just lashing down eyes, I wouldn't tow off them unless desperate.

Nah, it looks cool!
TBH as long as you know they have limits its ok, and try and only pull in a straight line.
The hook is better, and a rated aftermarket one is better still, but I've never broken a Toy one, but I think there was a thread on the Ozzie forum about some failed ones awhile ago.
Most of the aftermarket ones have a spring clip to stop the shackle or strop loop falling off, the Toy one dosn't.4x4toys.co.uk - Keeping you on and off the road...Comment

Thanks for info, will check mine tomorrow, pretty sure it has a sping clip though

But, I've been wrong before...

Ckecked today and mine's deffo got a spring clip. So does that mean its aftermarket? seems strange for a truck that was "standard" when I bought it..."B.A." Baracus: "Talk to me, talk sense so I can talk back. Not all this jibberjabber like breaking the peace and all that."
