Can you provide a link?

Are you talking about these - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/TOYOTA-PR...item3f225c06e0

Can you take pics of yours - I have a non winch ARB bar so am looking to clarify whether they will fit...

yeah there the same but I panted mine red as I think the red has a better colour contrast only thing when you fit them you need to make up a hook or use a strong magnet as the back nut in the chasis is a cage nut and is on a rod that arb slide in there to hold it and I had to trim the bolts that hold the bottom of the wing on as with the extra ten mm they hit eachother.

I would post a pic but im only new to the forum and havnt figured it out yet

Hi Kevin, it has taken some time however I finally have a reply from suplier of the Prado 150 recovery points that are rated to 5,000kg.

G'day Mate,
Yes they will fit but I think from memory you have to space the back bolt with washers
as the front will sit over the top of the bullbar bracket.
Kind regards
Michael

Actually they're not the same. Based on your photo the red ones you have with the round tow point (not mounting) holes are the Outback Ideas points or a close knock off. The yellow ones from the eBay link with elongated tow point holes are Roadsafe Recovery Points. I believe the mounting holes have the same spacing but not 100% certain.

Yes they will fit but I think from memory you have to space the back bolt with washers

That is a less than ideal way to mount them if the points don't end up sitting flush with the chassis or bullbar brackets. When TJM originally tried to fit my Roadsafe points they refused to fit them for this reason.
