Hi all,

I'm a new member (visitor) looking for some advice.

I have a Mazda Bravo 4wd and I'm off to Fraser next week, but don't have a tow hook on the front of the ute. I was told I may not need one - that I could simply get a tow rope and put it around the two side chasis rails and then over the front rail (that is welded to the side rails) and then attach this rope (using a D-shackle?) to my snatchem strap (if I DO get stuck, that is?!).

Would this suffice?

If I do need to attach a tow-hook, where is an appropriate spot on a Bravo?

And, finally, is the tow bar on the back ok to use from that direction?

All tips appreciated!

Cheers,
Diz
