I would like to make a bridle up for the front. Can anyone please advise the distance between the centres of the two front recovery eyes?

Presume same for rear? Just curious as will look to use central recovery eye in the receiver there.

5m is a good length for most vehicles

For the front. I think 7m for the back points to maintain 20 degrees, if one is that precise!

Am I right that a 5m equaliser on the rear would still give an angle less than 30 degrees which would be OK?

So who's doing the sums - how far off front/rear bumper does that take each length?

For those with the plastic bumper, there's plenty of room to leave a snatch ring attached behind the number plate - I'm also using a padded bag.

Interesting. Wonder why the UK and EU got plastic, but AUS and N. America got metal. Anyone know?

NHTSA in the USA wouldn't approve of your post. They're the most pedestrian-friendly folk in the world they believe.

Is it confirmed the US is getting steel bumpers? I have no insight.

Thanks.
