Yes. yes.
Those in your pics are just tie-down rings, not for recovery.
Ask Ollie ..
The following are the best Jate rings, when fitted make sure they rotate fairly easily. If they're too tight the ropes/shackles fitted through them can jam.

So no stopover/B&B - just a day out around Leeds? Reason I ask is my inlaws live in Leeds and we're used to a day trip as we live about 2 hours max drive away So I/we could say hello to them after laning (parking a clarted-up Disco 2 outside their house would be amusing!). So... costs would be fuel and lunch/brews etc. ?
My missus tends to think of vehicles as transport, not toys despite us marshalling at a few RAC rallies back in the day! How I enjoyed my Capris and Trans Am I'll never know. I can understand her point a little about not having a big budget to go out and try to break the Landy, but they are built to take stuff better than a normal road car This might be the excuse to drag her along (figuratively and not on a tow rope!). I'll find out and then confirm or not.
Thanks.

Just fuel, PaulD doesn't do shopping or toilet stops
Bring a packed lunch and plenty of drinks, and cake is an essential
Heheheh, I do tend to forget. I shouldn't, but I mostly take pies or snacks and drinks with me and eat while driving ... just hop out for a pee at a gate stop ..
'course, it's not often we take the girlies with us, or when we do, they learn to cope, mostly!

Looking forward to getting out with you all, I'm limited in what I have in the way of recovery. I'll be trying to build up what's needed, just not sure what. I don't have any strops/straps as yet as I'm not sure on the length that I need.
What time are we planning on meeting?

I don't think you need anything for the trip, other than the jate rings. I would wait until after the trip. I bought some straps but have since found out a good long rope would have been better. That's the point of this, so we can learn

All I did we drive it to the coast, why does mine drop to bits? I've nearly replaced everything on it and the stuff from when I bought it 18 months ago is braking again.
