No rear bumper recovery points?

[calgecko]

Just noticed on the Badlands, that it has recovery points built into the front bumper - but it doesn't look like there are any for the rear bumper? I see the tie-down point mounted under the left side of the rear bumper, but nothing to actually hook a recovery rope or line to... ?

I think for all trims it's just the rings bolted to the end of the frame rails...

That little loopy thingy below the license plate spot . Also on the other sside in this one, I think some trims only get one.

Side note: I see Rough Country sells these for the Ranger and F150 to replace loops up front with D rings

Standard equipment across the range states 2 front tow hooks and 1 rear. Page 2 of the 3 page pdf Ford put out early on.

Did you use the search function first?

Powder coat in red . . . Leave the shackles black . . .

Not sure those "loopy" things at the back are full recovery points. Be nice if they were. However, you do have a big one back there and all you need is either a Factor55 and shackle, or a cheaper version.

The trailer hitch is what I plan to use as a recovery point out back, but between my winch and MaxTrax, Hope to not need it much. Don't think I'll be towing anything unless one day get a Sea-Doo

I was thinking the opposite, but yeah.

I'm sure they are. They're bolted to the frame.

I'm sure they are. They're bolted to the frame.

Sometimes those are tie down points for transport, but if they can be used as rear recovery points, I hope that Ford speaks to that in the future. I'll still use the trailer hitch option, but every possible solution will find a use in some application.

I'm 100% positive they are recovery points

agreed...

I'm just pleased they are bolted in allowing the change to shackles.

Badlands has two in the back and two in the front. Fronts are bolted to the frame front, not the bottom like some trims. Same for all with modular bumper option.
