I'm tossing up whether to change my mopar bar for a HR bar. I've got a few 4wd trips next month - I'm not towing but expect I'll have to snatch a few friend's bogged landcruisers out.

I'd planned to use my recovery hitch for this but given the recall I assume this would not be safe.

My '18 overland came with a recovery hook at the rear - apologies as I am not mechanically minded but does anyone know if this is attached to the towbar or would it be ok to use?



Thanks!


I am interested in why some seem to have the Rear Hook retained and others removed. My MY18 Trailhawk has no hook, and I know a couple of other are the same. Surely there is nothing unique to the rear of the TH that requires the removal of the Hook. I will asking to see if it can be refitted as part of whatever the solution ends up being for the recall.
