Wanted: OE Front recovery point for GU - Solved

Post by Traveler »

Looking for a standard OE Nissan front recovery hook fitted on a GU.
Mine is 2009 model.
I would like to add a second one.

That is correct. It is a beefed up version of a standard J-Hook.

Tinus, plan is to visit them next.
I was kind of trusting someone might have removed the Nissan unit and replaced it with an aftermarket J Hook.

Michael from East Rand Nissan resolved my issue. :blonde:
Ordered it on Wednesday, and to my surprise it arrived this morning at the dealership.
R550.00

It has been fitted, and now I can use a bridle, and not bow shackles. Yes, I did use rated bolts as I should :thumbup: :thumbup:

Thanks Tinus, I am very happy with it. :blonde:
I must say when you have the Bashplate from Peter on, it is a bit of an exercise in patience to get it fitted. Not much space.
