factory steel bar recovery points

Peter ST_R · Feb 2, 2010

Hi

Does anyone use the recovery eyes in the factory steel bar? The mounting of the bar looks a bit weak to me and I wonder if using them would pull the bar loose.

Cheers

Do you mean the holes in the big U shaped brackets that hold the bar to the chassis? If so I have snatched from them no worries.

No not those points, I mean the ones at the bottom of the bullbar channel on the steel factory bull bar. The steel bar mounts through the points which you mentioned.

This is a pic of under my steel factory bar, which spot? the holes toward the front there?

theres no such thing as a factory bar as such. nissan buy from multiable manufactures and slap their name on it.

install some proper hooks into a decent location. i wouldn't trust pulling from a front bar.

if its what im thinkn of then used it heaps of times but i duno how much longer it would have lasted...the bullbar mounts are rubbish. mount some to the chassis properly

Already have hooks on the chassis which I use. I was thinking the points on the bullbar mounts are a bit easier to get to and just wondered if they were good to use too.

Iv used the stock eyelets on my car plenty of times before and all with no dramas, although you can notice it now that it is bent like crazy. Iv also got the aftermarket hooks i have bought, i just need to install them.
