    I paid way too much n got arb front recovery point... That was before I became a forum member... I wouldn't trust one of them hooks... I've never seen them fail but just have a gut feeling that they are not up to standard for what my truck does... My wife n kids 4b with me too so not only do I wanna look after my troll but the cargo is priceless...

    I think you need to read the owners hand book. Nissan does state to use it for recoveries......and not to be used for towing long distance.

    Thanks for sharing mate.

    It's interesting that your club recommends using the Nissan ones.........going by some of the responses on here you would think they would fall off as soon as you looked at them.......lol

    It's best to go with what your club recommends. I'm sure there more then suitable.....otherwise they wouldn't recommended them.

    Arb here had two that fit my gu the other one weigh like 15 kg and only came as a drivers side and was like 160$ it also would have hung quite low.

    Yeah I find it kinda surprising but if thats what they say to use. Use it I suppose. But for the cost, or the time factor really, of the aftermarket plates, for all the time and effort I have put into my rig, I don't want to risk it. Plus snatching from one chassis rail alone seriously can't be good.

    ????????? The OP has installed a second hook on the passenger side chassis rail. I can only assume this is so they can do a major recovery using both!!!!!

    But yeah what would Nissan, the OP's 4WD club and the OP know!!!!!!!
