    Disco5 front recovery hooks - yes or no?

    I am planning to have rear tow hitch that can double as a recovery point in case I get stuck.

    My question is for the front of the Disco5, does it have lower recovery hooks or not? I can't tell by the pictures presented so far. I did not see the option to add front recovery hook either.

    The rear screw in one is not designed for off road recovery. Rumor has it that they are developing an off road rear recovery as I type this email.

    Edit to say screw in one

    Surely you mean the recovery point at the rear is to help someone else that is stuck Very Happy

    the fb group says you can use the screw in for off road recovery, whereas the online manual its only for on road towing and recovery Mad
