last night i noticed a coolant leak....so i mounted a tow hook instead.

turned out to be my radiator, i was at advanced ordering my new one, and saw this in the clearance bin...



but of course i couldn't get that without this...



i thought "that hook would be a nifty thing to put on while i'm waiting for my radiator to come in". so i drilled a couple holes, took some flat stock to sandwich the frame, and what do you know??  instant recovery capability.  this should work perfect for pulling cars out at the mall

got the flat stock..


bolted it up...




i'm going to have to get a piece of 1/2 flat stock so i can lower it down a little, i think the strap may bend my bumper if i make a hard pull, but i'll have to find out, after i cut the grass this weekend there's a stump i need to remove, maybe we'll try that shiny new strap on the stump .  but for 4.99 for a rear recovery point i can't complain.  there were some cheap tow ropes with hooks in the clearance bin, but i left them there.  come to think of it, they would have probably been good for the yard tractor.

o! that was a low blow... but i don't get stuck. just bring a chain saw so u can cut down all the trees in a 3 mile radius so i don't hit them doing 20mph
