I thought she rolls a sexy H1 alpha

I was thinking of getting a short strap that I could hook one end to each recovery ring. Then hook onto the strap with a clevis. Then the pull force would be split between the two rings. If the pull was off to an angle, then the clevis would just slide on the short strap, still keeping the load on both rings.

There are plenty of companies that man a 2" reciever adapter with a D ring on it, most seem to be in the $30 range.

While you can use your reciever as a hard point for reovery I would not recommend it. Especially for snatching.

The reciever is okay to use for simple straight pulls but that is about it. If you are pulling from an angle or snatching on the reciever there is a good chance you could bend it as the reciver tube is not braced at the outter most part.

Your D rings are bolted directly through the rear steel bumper into the frame Your rear steel bumper acts as another cross member. Thus allowing the D-Ring to be a much better "hard point" for serious recovery and snatching.

If you southen boys know Curt Ridenour. (I know BigZ and Rouch do) He got his H2 stuck really bad a couple months ago and tried using he reciver as a hard point. He bent the hell out of it.

For any jeep guys here reading up on the 4x4 they wish they bought, There's a reason H2's have shackles on the back and jeeps come with tow hooks on the front.
