Question for those who offroad

[Olfart]

I like to use my rear hitch instead of the recovery rings, especially when pulling someone or something. Put a d-ring through the hole where the hitch ball normally goes. This puts a more even load on the Hummer frame than pulling from a recovery ring which is off center. I also do this with the front hitch, especially when pulling downed trees off the country road I live on. Gives me a better view of where the tree is going as I move it. Also prefer to use a logging chain over a strap. Just my $.02

I use Grip-On 15,000# tow straps with Drings and have never had any problems with the recovery rings . I've been very happy with them and you can find them on Ebay or Amazon these days for about $20. They store easily behind the back seat and have worn well over the years. My D-rings are those olive drab 10 ton rated WWII ones you can find at any army surplus store for around 10 dollars a pair. If you carry them with you all the time like I do, wrap them in an old towel, because they love to rattle and clink.
