ARB weld on recover tabs

[wearsabrowncoat]

Who was making the weld on recovery points that reenforced the hi-lift jacking tabs?

Tried a search but the mobile app doesn't allow me to filter as I would like.

Reinforce? Why not cut them off and weld it real ones?

Guessing you had those welded both inside and outside of the bumper? Do they slide into the frame rails? What length did you use?

I've been thinking about those weld thru mounts but don't want to deal removing the winch, HIDs, DRLs, temp gauge, heater block plug in, and finally the bumper. Besides if I did I'm sure I would look at your bumper thread again and have to come up with more $$$ to throw at it.

I was hoping for a slightly simpler solution.

I have seen a fellow mudder that had bolt on recovery tab that had a plate on the inside.. Will post it once I find it.

Thank you for the replies. As a follow up it was Trunk Money who originally made the weld on plates. Those that he didn't sell ended up with Kurt at Cruiser Outfitters. Kurt is currently sold out but would make a run if he had 10-15 preorders.

Trunk Monkey uncovered four weld on tabs that never made it to Cruiser Outfitters and hooked me up.

I had a buddy install them for me. He used an air chisel to knock off the reinforcement washer on the tab. Then I helped him cut/sand the weld on tabs so they sit flush against the bumper and welded them on each side of the original tab.

Left and right plates added to tab

Painted with some primer. My buddy had some shorter metric bolts he got off his 4runner project so off came the Factory tie down loops and arb spacer. Finally a little semi gloss black paint added.
