I'm trying to get my Jeep ready so I can go on trail rides when the come up (naxja sponsored specifically). I've been saving up a little at a time trying to get it ready for Mohawk Madness. I became a paying member and expected to get something on what kinds of things are checked in the inspections and whats exceptable and what isn't.
One of the last things I have to do is get some front tow points
I posted this a while back and finally got the extra cash to get it done but wasn't sure if it would be exceptable. http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=54866&highlight=protofab+bumper
So in short, I have the protofab bumper without the reciever hitch which bolts up in the 3 stocks locations per side.. I was going to get JKS frame plates that ChuckD suggested which would give me an extra 1/4" of steel on each side of each framrail and would extend back further so that if I did need to tug on my front bumper, the stress would be over a greater area of the frame. Would this be okay? Would I need to add d-ring shackles or a reciever hitch to my bumper or would wrapping the strap around the bumper be sufficient enough?
I just don't want to get there and be told I can't go cause I have no front tow points. So if someone could shed some light on this it would be great.
Thanks
