As always, I am getting things done at the last moment...
I am looking at installing recovery points for my Kakadu. ARB cost about $375 for one, and I found what looks like a credible an alternative (I think the brand is RoadSafe) for about $220 per pair. My question, is there much of a difference in practical terms between these? ARB seems to be rated for higher load, but my guess is that when using one side the load is transferred to the chassis anyway, so using two rated lower may be a reasonable option?
Another question - rear recovery points. There doesn't seem to be anything specific for Prado except for tow bars. Is there a stock point that can be safely used as recovery point?
