Those are actually not recovery points, I use mine as such, but the last time I used the front one, it actually bent that tab all up. Had to bang it back into place with a sledge. That means it is even weaker now. But they do look awesome!!!Originally Posted by VX KAT
Got 2 Crosby 3/4" shackles today, it fits on the rear eyelet, me likey!
but can't fit it on the front two holes (well, actually I only tried the front driver side). Not enough space width-wise down there to get pin open far enough to slip it through hole, it's at a slight angle. Tried it both ways too.
I might be able to get the next size down 5/8" on which is only 3.25 ton......so Billy how the heck did you get a 3/4" in let alone a 1" on there....the BFH method? I'm not sure I want to beat on the metal thing there...

Recovery points should be attached to the frame, such as our front tow hook. A hitch insert would work as well since it bolts directly to the frame. I think maybe those holes were for shipping tie downs?
