There is a plate I think from memory on the left hand side, its a double plate bumper mount, not a bad spot for a location.

Bull bars are a good option providing the recovery mounts are intergrated into the bar, like a light weight ECB bar would not be recommended in my mind, yet a Warn or ARB bar are strong units, with recovery points built in.

For my money I dont like bolt on hooks with the XJ!
