I have just removed the drop plate and arms from the towbar on my Disco TD5 (to improve departure angle) and am now wondering if the 'T' shaped piece remaining (bolted to the chassis) is strong enough on it's own to use as a recovery point. If so what should I fit? The two holes accept a standard towball but it would be too high and foul the bumper so I was thinking along the lines of a spacer plus a hitch with pin?
Any ideas? (Don't want to use jate rings as I want to be able to attach a tow rope for light recovery etc easily)
