tow points

28this Wrote:Actually it does. Mike's post was reffering to these shipping points as tow points in his post, which technically they are not designed for things like recovery. that is why I posted with what I did, so Gamble new if he used these points for recovery, they're is a thing called safety invovled because they aren't suppose to be used that way. I've seen the same things on Mike's rig and if he didn't know, now he also knows along with anyone else that didn't know. Use them on your rig if you want, don't look to me when it screws your frame up. I'll just say told you so.

I'm entitled to my opinion on here just as you are, so don't try no pi$$ing matches with me. You don't agree with my opinion, fine. That's your opinion, but it doesn't give you the right to try and make me look like I don't know what I'm talking about. When it comes to things like recovery, I don't BS, because that's my safety too if I'm the one on the other end of the cable or strap and the tow point gives because of improper use.

I'm not trying to start any missing matches with anyone, if anything your the one getting all hot and bothered. Wink

Maybe were thinking of different hooks, but when Ford Motor Company lists tow hooks as a feature, I'm pretty sure that's what they designed them for...if some trucker decides that's what he's going to use to tie down the truck with, that's fine, but it still doesn't change what it was made for. I also don't BS when it comes to recovery either, I've seen more weld on D-Rings break because somebody who thought they knew how to weld didn't burn them on correctly, then I have seen tow hooks break.
