I know you are supposed to use the points at the bottom of the bar, but with so many hooks out there its hard to tell.   Craig Kobayashi (Koby) Senior Member Username: Koby Post Number: 289 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Wednesday, March 19, 2003 - 11:37 am:    If you were forced to use the loops on the factory A-bar in a recovery situation I would use shackles, never hooks. http://www.discoweb.org/cowmountain/cowmtn022.jpg   Jeffrey L.

I ran some numbers for this load case a while back. They should be available by searching. -jeff
