My theory. If you can't sit on it, then don't use it as a recovery point.

Those tabs are for removing your brush bar. Tie it to another vehicle and reverse or have them go forward.

tie a strap around your frame and run it up to your passengar side window and stick on the seat with a d ring attached.

Get a jate ring for the time being. Really no other option besides an aftermarket front bumper
