I completely agree!

One of the couple reasons I didn't really play in the mud today.  I really don't have any pull points and it is not safe to pull from a place not designed to take that sort of load.

I agree 100%.

For my own safety... I refuse to pull people out that do not have a solid pull point.

Seen something happen way to may times that could have gone very bad.

I agree Betterbeaters was trying to pull out a K5 and I was standing outside of his Xj and I saw the pullpoint on the K5 move luckly the K5 stalled and wouldn't start so it gave us a chance to make a quick getaway

Reese hitch front and rear. never a problem with me but a lot of issues with that.  I pulled out my buddies Jeep and that was about it.  I wasn't there long enough.  This is an issue at Just about every Bog I have been to.  A local guy started checking and if you didn't have good pull points front and rear you didn't unload or play.

yeah i have seen some stupid stuff. I have really good points on the tracker. the jeep is another story. i have welded the front bumper on the best that i can see other than adding some steel down the sides of the unibody to the front bumper. the back bumper was on there when i bought it and i looked it over looks good. but its unibody so i will always be leary on that anyways. i tell everyone that pulls me out to take is slow i'm not that stuck. cuz i dont want to break my jeep and most important i dont want to get anyone hurt.
