Good morning

Hi Johan,
I got rid of mine as it is not the best recovery point. Simply it does not secure the rope/strop and when the tension slackens the rope/strap the falls out. Suggest you visit your local 4x4 shop and see if the can make some for you or send PC a mail. I am sure he can help you.

Johan, unfortunately the 4.8's recovery hook is unique and not shared with any of the older models.
It is also the best recovery hook you will find for the Patrol, as it allows "soft" recoveries.
AndriesS bought one from Nissan a year or two ago for about R550, which I thought is fairly reasonable.
