									Recovery points allow you to attach 
										tow
										ropes
									, snatch ropes and
									winch cables to your vehicle
									to aid in vehicle recovery. Recovery
									points are normally attached directly to the vehicle's chassis so as to
									withstand the extreme stresses applied during vehicle recoveries.

									While normal (factory-fitted) recovery points and tow bars are suitable
									for on-road towning, both of trailers and other vehicles, they usually
									don't withstand off-road 
										vehicle recovery
										operations

									Unfortunately not many production four wheel drives today come equipped
									with heavy-duty recovery points. For this reason many resort to third-party
									accessories such as those depicted above. Note that use of such heavy-duty
									recovery points often also requires strengthening of the vehicle's chassis
									and bumber where the recovery points are attached.
