Homemade tow point at the rear of the HZJ
I am thinking about making a rear recovery point on my 1995 HZJ so that I can be pulled free when I get stuck. So it must be strong!!!
I have removed the towbar so I was wondering if I could bolt an eye to the middle of the chassis frame where the towbar was boltet on? (See the red "doodle" in the picture)
Is this part of the frame strong enough? (the one marked in blue)
I think it's good enough for a 3 ton trailer....but is it enough if I'm well buried in mud?
If I have to reinforce it... how would you do it?
What have you made of creative solutions?
