Thanks everyone! I'm so glad I posted this question, sounds like I would have gone up there completely unprepared

No worries Adam.

Like I said too, I'm heading up on the 19th. If you're planning to head up around the same time, drop me a line & we can meet up if you like.

Default Can't put recovery hooks on my jeep :(

Hi All,

I just spoke to ARB about getting recovery hooks on my new jeep, and they said that I have to replace both bumpers! I really like the big plasticy bumpers (I specifically didn't put a bullbar pack on when I bought it because I prefer them) so I'm a bit bummed about that.

Can anyone comment as to whether this seems correct? It seems unusual that I would have to go to such lengths just to get a couple of hooks on it.

Cheers
Adam
