If you era looking for a nice set of tie downs and don't mind drilling some holes then go to 4x4connection.com. They have a brand called
secur-it. I have seen them in the back of a friends D90.
Log onto the site the click on recovery gear.they will be it that section.

Thanks for the info Rico, you wouldn't happen to have a coupon code would you?

Thanks

John,
I don't know exactly what a coupon code is but here is the product number that was next to the picture.
base and tie down = 40890-10
base only = 40890-11

Also a friend told me that if you are putting the bolts through the aluminum then you might want to get some sort of backing to prevent them from pulling through.

Thanks Rico. I ordered them via their website and when I was about to checkout they asked me if I had a coupon code, probably some special (ie free shipping, etc). No big deal.

Thanks again for the info.

Hey Rico,
I pulled the carpet in the cargo area and I found several pre-drilled holes there... I am designing the tie-downs, once I am done I'll send some pictures.

Jose,
Thanks.
I'll be waiting for the pictures.
I would like to put some tie downs in before SOLAROS but it seems that my time is running short.
I'm in the process of repainting the rock sliders and the bumper. I'm also adding a couple of new recovery points to the bumper.
