Can you take a close-up of the D-ring mounts or did you just use the stock tow points?

Thanks

They're like the SS hangers:

but I just had them built locally. I paid only $100.00 for them and the shackles were only $13 each. I did have to buy a couple of new bolts because I didn't trust the old ones due to rust and crap buildup.

My niece is from Homer (for 30 years anyway). She runs a kayak tour service and drives an excursion boat. Link to True North Kayak Adventures I went up for her wedding a few years ago. Fun place. I almost got run over by a scared moose in a downtown parking lot.

Very Cool! Yeah, you have to keep an eye out for moose and other large cridders even if you're in towns and around other people. Tell you the truth though... I would rather deal with moose and bear then snakes and large spiders! I'll scream like a little girl if I saw them close to my camp!

Smoked is about the only way I eat salmon now-a-days. I eat more halibut then salmon that's for sure. Shrimp also...

I think I need a lift before sliders... I'm afraid if I put sliders on now my backend will really be saggy. I'm thinking of even removing my hitch just to free up a few lbs. My suspension is really, really weak these days.

Need to get back to work before any of that though.... Work has been pretty slow these days. It should be picking up real soon though. (fingers crossed)
