Sorry Kirk, my main concern is if he gets it wrong as happened from advise on another vehicle brand forum (not Jeep) a few years ago. A passenger riding in the back seat of the recovery 4x4 was killed when an incorrectly fitted recovery hook becoming a missile and went through the rear window. I'm personally an a bit edgy as 30+ years ago I had a guys non-rated/standard "D" shackle punch a hole in the rear door on my Landcruiser. It was unfortunate because I wasn't running the recovery, I was the mug in front on him in the convoy and I trusted the guy running the recovery to do the right thing.
I sent a PM yesterday to him (& he has replied)to contact me by phone as I can't and won't advise on an open forum because of legal implications if I or he gets it wrong.
Cheers, AL
