Use the Tow Hook for Everything
Here’s something worth remembering.
A towing eye is not necessarily designed for aggressive off-road recovery or every type of pulling operation.
There is a big difference between towing a disabled vehicle and snatching a deeply stuck vehicle out of mud with a recovery strap.
The forces involved in a hard recovery can be dramatically higher than those involved in ordinary towing.
Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding towing direction, equipment, weight limits, and recovery procedures.
And if you’re unsure, call a professional recovery service.
