When I put it on my DII, I asked the dealer if it could handle the stress of a recovery. They said yes. But I decided to ask you guys as well, is it strong enough? I think it could be, because before buying the bumper I got stuck almost halfway up the doors in mud and a bunch of friends pulled me out by using the stock front recovery point. Thanks for your help!!

The bar is strong enough for a mild recovery, but it has a tendency to rotate upward and mash the front of the hood.

Use the largest bolts possible to mount it. This will help some with the rotation. The bolts that came with the one I had on my D1 were smaller than the holes in the frame and allowed it to rotate.

The bolts that come on the DSII are okay to use but in deep mud I would use your rear hitch before the front brush bar. That is, if it was an option.
