Snatch strap attachment on stock 1st gen

Hello.

So I've tried searching to little avail and now I beg of you to please give me some pointers. My question is: how would you recommend attaching a snatch strap(s) to a stock 1st gen tacoma to pull someone out of mud.

From all the info I've read it seems that one can attach the tow hook for some light/gentle pulling, but for something stickier the tow hooks might get bent. I don't have a hitch on the back so I can't fit a d link there. So, what are you suggestions for attachment points on both front and rear?

Thanks in advance.

 

Haha... If it was stuck I'd be busy digging it out and not posting.

This is for future reference, a hypothetical scenario. Perhaps any d links which can bolt on where the factory tow hooks are?

 

Something like the D ring anchors at the bottom of the page here: http://www.sdori.com/SDORI_Products.html

 

Get a damn hitch, I pulled my buddies 1997 F-350 4door longbox out of a 3 foot deep ditch with snow, took about 100 pulls only thing it bent was the stupid ball on the hitch..

Ps. that pig ways 10k+

 

In a dire situation for the rear you can use the shackles or the axle. just be extra careful with these locations because if you mess somethin up you are probably effed. the front has holes drilled on both left and right sides that are meant to be yanked on. its a tight fit but you can fit a snatch strap in there and loop it around itself. but for the rear you really do need a hitch or stout bumper

 

i really don't think you want to do that.

 

x2...one bad yank on the axle by an idiot pulling you out and you are in a world of trouble.
