Re: My GU 4.2 Turbo Diesel
That looks nice, but if I may lay my egg
.... I did my recovery points on the Sani in a similar way. I did not drill the holes in my 16mm plate I used close enough to the edge. The hole is too close to the bumper and you end up with a situation that the shackle pushes up against the back plate as soon as you start pulling at a slight angle. (if that makes sense)...
The shackle has enough play in the hole to pivot and catch the bumper itself if you pull at an angle. Center of my recovery hole is 20mm off the back plate.

Re: My GU 4.2 Turbo Diesel
Tanks David, but I think I am in the clear.
The hole looks close to the bumper but I think the size of the recovery point makes it look closer than it is

Re: My GU 4.2 Turbo Diesel
Oom Kobus, ek sien die manne met soortgelyke bumpers verander die spaarwiel carrier sodat die wiel bietjie hoer sit. Ek sal n nuwe een bou
