Hey John,
What do you think about this before I go thru with it? I was planning 2 D-rings in the front of, and on top of the frame rails just behind the radiator support in the engine bay for a tow straps. Do you guys carry different tow straps with you? Like shortys with hooks on the ends to grab those D- rings and form a inverted 'V' to tow from. Suppose I could carry my own (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I thought that would be the best place to put them?? I want a way for the safety crew to be able to get the front level and tires off the ground if need be for a tow back to the pits. Thanks for your time! Tony |

tony just remember the hood and the boom and cable of the tow truck!Im not sure if are hoods go all the back or not(im checking now)well on my street car it won't work be cuase of the hood shocks,and i think the back corners of the hood will hit the fenders.but if your working with a 4 pined hood than your in (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/thumbup.gif) FYI we have come close to ripping STB right off (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) becuase the nuts/bolts just aren't strong enough to hold up 2000+lbs(front half) of car!
I guess there's no easy full proof solution (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I just hope you never need this stuff :drive: may you drive back to the pits everytime! |
