Default What size recovery holes on AB rear bumper?
I just ordered the AB heavy duty rear bumper (DA5646) and need to know what size recovery rings to buy. Anyone know?

Give me 5 minutes...

Edit: Almost exactly an inch, slightly less.

I would guess 3/4. That seems to be the most common size.

It's not, it's almost exactly an inch. I took a vernier caliper to it.

So it probably fits a 7/8 (14/16) like these.

I'd get good quality 3/4" screw pin shackles, like CM or Crosby forged alloy. They have a 7t WLL.

I've only used the ARB D-shackles in them so far but they seem to hold up well to dynamic and static recovery.
