    GU Y61 front recovery points?

    Hi Guys,

    I'm looking at replacing the factory tie down point on the front of my Patrol with a pair of Road Runner Off Road RP-PAT04 recovery points. I also have an ARB Bar and have had a look at how the fit (a mate has a pair on his Pathfinder). Has anybody fitted this to a GU Y61? Clearance between the shackle and the factory stone guards looks a little close and I'm wondering if anybody has recovered using them and has it caused any damage to the factory stone guards etc.

    Thanks in advance.

    Contact threedogs mate. He's the man for the reco plates. Those ones your looking at are cheap garbage. No issues with fitting them to the GU's too.

    Don't all of Road Runners recovery points have a WLL rating?

    Mine do. Stamped and rated and attached properly. Bought from a reliable supplier who advertises on this forum.
    2005 GU IV ST 3.0. Snorkel. Roof rack. Awning. Spots. Welded I/C. Dual batteries & VSR. UHF. Barn door hinge extension. Roof top spot lights. Rear drawers. 2" lift. NADS. EGT and boost gauges. Trans temp and water temp gauges. Provent 200 catch can. Rear ladder


    And crawling on the planet's face, some insects called the human race. Lost in time. And lost in space... and meaning.

    Why? The OP has asked about Road Runners.

    Are they unsafe? do they not have a WLL rating?

    Are they an unreliable supplier?

    Or is it just for a commercial reason?
