Thanks, Not doubting you but can anyone else confirm/

I will probably use 5 or 10mm plate on both sides of cross member then mount recovery ring on this. Nato hitch would be nice 8-[

If you mean the two points marked in my photo, then yes, no problem. I've seen 2 Jate rings put through these holes and used for recovery.
