need a recommendation...

[kegjeep]

I was wondering if any of you can recommend a good D-Ring Receiver Hitch and recovery strap? How much lb strength would be adequate for the strap? I've got front hooks and skids, do you guys recommend boulder bars also? I'll prob be wheeling a bit with other jeeps, toyotas, maybe an xterra. Thanks guys.

Warn is a great brand for the D-Ring receiver hitch

Strap... look for a 3"x30' strap somewhere in the 20,000lb to 30,000lb range. Oh and I'll be the first to say look for looped ends, not metal hooks on the strap, see the pic below. (OK, OK everyone, it's been said, no need for 4000 other posts about "no metal hooks" :-$ ).

Boulder bars would be a great idea if you'll be doing rock crawling, but aren't a bad idea for any type of serious offroading. It'll eliminate the chance of getting "character" marks along your rocker panels. Rocks jump out from the weirdest of places, and always when you least expect it. It's better than standing around later saying "well I thought I was fine UNTIL..."
