Post subject:  Recovery Points on a Sierra?
Hi all,

As the heading suggests what is everyone using as recovery points on there sierra's. I have a 96 coily and I am wanting to put some decent recovery points on but I can't find where I can put them. If anyone can post up some photos of there points or give me some suggestions that would be greatly appreciated,

Cheers

Pete

i bolted hooks through my chassy,
made up a big flat plate washer that slides inside the rail to resist it pulling though

When I had a look at the front and rear of the chassis on my sj80 I couldn't find any holes to be able to bolt through, or did you drill into your chassis?

cheers

Sierra's don't need recovery points. They never get stuck.
So, you must be putting them on to recover Nissans and Tojos and Jeeps, yeah?

I wish mine knew that when I got stuck up the hill in my avatar. I was extracted from that one by a GU :oops:

I use the tow bar with the ball removed on the back.

I use the tie down point at the front for light recoveries (which I do not recommend as it can cause damage to the sierra)

If I were you, I'd belt a pipe though the pipe at the front of the chassis, then make some plates with points attached to them, like this:
