The white ( well grey now...ha ha) is a thick angle iron that supports the bash plate

That recovery point on picture 5 is the best and strongest one to use

Yip... that is just one heavy chunk of metal, but.... with the bash plate in the way it makes using it difficult as well as the problem of it not being a closed setup to prevent the rope from slipping off the hook

With that flat piece on the point no recovery rope will come of easily. I got those recovery points at the front and back of the Safari - it comes out standard.

I have been wondering about that orange tags on the U-bolts? Only to look cool or is there another use?

The straps on the shackles is so that one doesn't loose the pin.
