Great information thank you. I am a Quality Engineer so fully understand the importance of the welding of the recovery points. I will make sure when the new bumper is installed we ensure or add the correct backing plate. I wasn't familiar with the bolt/nut grades but 20 minutes on Google and I...
Have you considered a come-a-long, tree saver, and another shackle for the tree set up? That would give you one more way to self recover if needed. As far as recovery boards are concerned it looks like the Maxtrax are the way to go but there are a few cheaper options.
