But if I'm going to buy one I might as well ask the question if they come in black!

Not painting at that price! In primer is as far as I'll go!

I wasnt offended Im trying to think of options whilst keeping it under half the price but stronger than others available .

what thickness is the plate, are you sure they're gonna be strong enough to take the weight ov a landy with another one tucking at it ?

12mm thick plate(terrafirma 8 or 10mm) with 20mm round solid bar, so good for 30 tonne as far as material uts goes so a lot stronger than the chassis

Hi, just wondering what the hole diameters were and at what centres they are at. I'm looking to fit one to a series 2.

Cheers
Kevin

Theyre standard defender hole positions ,the bottom 2 and top 2 holes on the x member. Its been a long time since Ive been near a series so I cant remember if theyre the same!

Just popped down to see Clive and saw these recovery hoops, there massive in real life and definitely strong enough probably far more over engineered than they need to be. Now have one just gotta paint it..

just a suggestion. next time you take pics, it could be useful to take them next to a frame of reference, like the bumper. It's a bit hard to tell if its on a tshirt

*cough* nm, seems I didn't click and look at the second page

Is it just me, but I think Bella really could do with investing in a good manicure


Just going to check that the hole in my crossmember isnt near the tow bar point before I order one

I have wondered about taking the tow bar off if I go laning as its the lowest point.

Not questioning the quality of these, they look great, but what they are mounted on. My towbar fastens to the crossmember and the chassis, it only tows a 3 tonne trailer. Is a crossmember strong enough if you have to pull a Landy out of mud or something?

Your x member really needs to be in good condition, but these put no more stress in than when all we had was nato hitches for recovery.
If youve one of my x members youll be fine
