Rich,

We are going through the process of trying to create a bolt on recovery point for the front and rear for those who are reluctant to weld. Too late for you but thought you might like to know.

Someone suggested to me to have a 1/2inch thread welded into the end of the chassis leg and to screw in a recovery eye when off road and remove it for normal road driving.

Any thoughts?

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!

Its an idea, but my main concern was the crumple zone on the end of the chassis is not that strong and is welded to the end of the leg. When I did mine I boxed it all in to give it more stregnth.

If you do have rubbing issues, you could always go for a small body lift to overcome it, cheaper than a suspension lift.
