It is strong enough for a carefull steady pull but I would not be surprised if there was some kind of warning about its use being for road recovery, or something similar, in the users manual. Please do check, just in case there is.Don't normally disagree with the duck however the towing eye is strong enough. Silly to say it isn't tbh.
It's behind the panel as said above.
You do get nice and manky finding it though.
That's only 2.5 tons of steady strain though, if you think about it.I'm sure I've seen a video of a Discovery hanging from a helicopter via the front towing eye?
Really........ nick and I just put a strap around front axle and had it out in 1 minute 10.... so how did the landrover demo guy get so confused..... if he really did
Are you sure that wasn't a Disco 1 or 2, totally diffferent construction
And if it ripped part of the front chassis off then no recovery hook fastened to it would have done any better
