I emailed them today to see if they would fit with a TJM bar, the reply I received stated that they had only fitted them up to a vehicle with an Ironman Bar. Have asked what the return policy Is if I were to order them and they wouldn't fit.....

Mates 150 recently had an ARB deluxe bar fitted and a couple of ARB recovery points. Had him over on Saturday fitting up his diff breathers and he asked me a couple of questions about recovering the vehicle using the two points. I showed him my ARB recovery kit and pulled out the ARB rated D shackle to do a dummy fit. What we discovered was the the hole in the recovery points are too small for the D shackle. Has anyone come across this before? Maybe my shackles are too big yet fit same bar on my 120 (recovery points part of the bar and elongated hole).
Will be seeing ARB Salisbury Thursday for an explanation.

I got the same response from John, though as I am in Melbourne he suggested I drive on over to try them out. As they are about 50kms away I hope to do this on Saturday (as long as it is raining) and I will update the thread on how they go.Originally posted by Fabes View PostPrado GXL 150 D4D, OME Suspension, Safari Snorkel, Brown Davis Underbody Guards, T13 Bull Bar, Warn XP9.5, 285/70 r17 Cooper STTs on Dick Cepek Torque rims,Comment

They are the ones selling them on eBay. The look the same as the Outback Ideas points except they have an elongated hole which allows you to thread the D shackle through, a good addition. I'll get a set in a month or so I reckon and see if they'll fit with the ARB bar, although hopefully someone else will have an answer by then.Originally posted by smakb View Post

Recovery points

I have a 150 GXL D4D. My local ARB shop sourced front recovery points for me which I had fitted by them. They are excellent. The standard Prado ones are crap.......Tell your ARB shop to get off their tail and source some for you. Hope this helps.Comment

I ordered these and they arrived yesterday. I fitted one to make sure it fitted well and whilst fiddly to get the nut down the chassis rail they fit perfectly with the ARB Bar.

So these aftermarket recovery points are rated, but are the bolts that hold them on rated? Tested to destruction?
Or simply a basic high tensile bolt, which can be easily broken as simply as over tightening......
The standard recovery point on the front of the 120 to say the least are a lot thicker & stronger than a basic vehicle tie down point.
They are welded very well.
When you bolt a big strong rated recovery point to the vehicle with the lowsy 8.8 tensile not only are the bolts not as big or strong but look what they are going into..... It ain't cast iron!
Those 2 bolts cannot be any stronger than a very thick steel welded on.....
Or what did I miss? That's my thoughts at this stage......Comment
