Also an FYI for those who haven’t tried a recovery yet. The front points on my Hoe, and other GM rigs too perhaps, are recessed in the fascia far enough that D ring shackles are a no go. Invest in some soft shackles of suitable rating.
If you’re with a group, many will already have straps and such. Take a look at your recovery points. On my Tahoe they’re recessed into the front fascia far enough that D rings won’t work. I have a suitable soft shackle for the front. I use a hitch insert with a D ring in the rear.
Check out the site and YouTube for theroadchoseme. He went through a number of choices trying to fit both water and fuel into his Jeep for touring Africa. He ended up going with some marine options because of the spaces he found.
I’m in Buda, and there’s a cluster of folks up in Round Rock and Georgetown. We’ve been having a fun time in the last year. There’s also a monthly meetup on the first Saturday at Old Settlers park.
Well, drat. Another event bites the dust. I was looking forward to camping out for this one.
