a few quick cell phone photos of the tow strap setup I decided to build


I can assure you that they are STRONG, and easily removable. I used straps because I didn't want to weld up mounts/brackets/ etc just to pass tech. i do NOT plan on using these (who ever does?!). Anyways the straps are easily rolled up and I am using a simple break-away rubber band setup in case they need to be used. the Rear one is solid as heck and the front one I built using threaded steel rod, but with a larger sized steel pipe sleeve to center the tow-strap anchor mid-way vertically through the fog light pocket in the grill. If it was too high or too low in the grill pocket and was just mounted on the threaded rod, it would move around and kill the bumper paint. It will swivel side to side now, but can not move vertically. I emailed photos to Jimi at USCA and was give the thumbs up.
