Recovery Points

Postby HiBRiD109 » Fri Apr 28, 2017 2:17 pm

Anybody know where to buy recovery points? My LE doesn't have a tow hook in the front and I might as well spent the extra and get better recovery points.
The only thing I have found is a AUS company but I don't know if they are reputable.

For that price you could have a local welder/fab shop build you some.

I use this for the rear and have the stock hook up front.

One day, when I get around to it, I will have something like Rockymountainx front recovery point, which is similar to DiBos front recovery point.

In case you're interested, these are the part #'s for the Nissan tow hooks:

51112-EA000 RH front tow hook
51113-EA000 LH front tow hook (discontinued)

The left hook is supposed to come with bolts, which are Nissan P/N: 081B7-2452A

Thanks guys, after reading up on RockyMtnX on the thenewx board and DiBos thread, I'm just going to make my own. Ordering the metal from Metals Depot cost me $35 shipped. Just need to find someone local to cut the shapes and holes. I'll post my results.

ok, going to upload a the picture i used for my dimensions. the holes and the size of the base plate were an exact fit when i bolted them on, and mean exact!! when it comes to the drop down "hook part" or "shackle hole" you can go nuts but i used exactly these and you can see how it worked out.

I'm in the US, so it would be left hand drive. I believe the bolts were spec'd at around 100 lb/ft, but my memory is not what it used to be!
