Dukie I wanted your thoughts. So I've got the jcr unibody tie ins. And I've reinforced my aftermarket bumper by welding a steal plate onto the existing mounts. I plan to just bolt my tow hooks to the bumper.

that'll probably be fine for straight pulls, but you need something to resist side loading

It's mostly if I have to get pulled out, I prefer being pulled/pulling by the hitch.

I'd still brace it sideways somehow - pulls are almost never perfectly straight on
