how do u guys get pulled from the rear?

looking at my rear and i dont see any recover points, how do you guys do it??

i only asked cause ive never got stuck in my prerruner (badass) but at some point with the wheelin i do its a matter of time

 

im guessing you're hitchless? there should be some frame points to hook into with a hook but that's more dangerous, due to a metal hook that could snap out and fly into the other direction

 

what are you talking about? im pretty sure tacos cant get stuck!

 

this is just in case..................haha

 

If you have a hitch, you can get a hitch shackle

 

I've got an aftermarket class 3 hitch and one of these.

 

You should be a bit more concerned about being pulled from the front. That tow hook is crap

 

If you have a hitch, you can just run a strap through the pin. You don't need a fancy hitch shackle. It is essentially doing the same thing. All the load unless side loaded is going to be the same.

 

In a pinch u can wrap strap around your rear bumper

 

wouldnt tht pul the bumper right off?

 

All 1st gen orners need to remember pulling rear hard from the rear on our frames is not a good idea. Our frames arent very strong back there, hints why manufacturers are making supports to weld in.... just sayin, carry on

 

ya thts wut im saying^^^

but also i cant reinforce my frame, too much mu-la

 

I don't hangout in those kinda bars. Seriously, I carry a hitch shackle in my Jeep, similar to what Pugga posted with a strap, to pull kids and house fraus outta snowbanks

 

$125 is too much?

 

I usually just get pushed.

 

Can you show me a link or any info to the frame reinforcement?

I remember seeing someone just do this recently and may have posted it in the "what have you done today" thread but I can't find it. All I remember is a bunch of guys telling him to seal up his welds (?) and he explained he lived in Arizona where id doesn't rain or rust.

I'm thinking I would like to do this to my stock Tacoma.

Thanks... any help is appreciated

 

its only 125?!!!!

 

check my build fellas

 

All you need is a receiver hitch... like this one.







and the shackle mount posted above...



I can sell you my Putnman for $ 60. if that might appeal to yer needs.

Looks like this mounted with the stock bumper...



* No... the bling shiny chrome skull is not included... LoL
