Hi @stavros papachristos all communication happens through the website, which comes with the massive advantage that it will provide you access to thousands of articles about cars and offroading. The only Whatsapp communication we provide are the drive notifications (not a chat group). See below: 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."

Shynil Hashim Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 4 hours ago, Rahimdad said: Hi @Shynil Hashim and @Frederic, the R50 comes with tie down point for recovery and not with the tow hooks. You'll need to check with a turning shop on installing proper rated tow hooks with rated nuts and bolts. If this point breaks it is going to be dangerous and costly repair job. Thanks @Rahimdad Could you suggest me a good turning shop? Also what would be the estimated cost? Sorry for asking as I am a complete novice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahimdad Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 There are quite a few in Sharjah Industrial area. You just need to speak to a few and try to negotiate with the one you feel is offering you the best deal. I'm not sure about Dubai, but I'm sure Al Quoz or Rashidiya will have plenty there as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks @Rahimdad I guess i will have to skip this Friday as I dont have the rear tow hooks. @SrikumarI dont have the rear tow point in my Pathfinder. I guess I wont qualify for tomorrow's drive, right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @Shynil Hashim I am sorry but without rear tow points we cannot accept you for the drive. 10 minutes ago, stavros papachristos said: Good morning i see last couple of days there is dense fog in the morning , is that going to affect our ride? Good morning @stavros papachristos yes that’s quite typical nowadays. Normally after 08:00 it clears up, otherwise we will need to wait a bit. So far we only had it once this year , fingers crossed and hope your smiles will chase away the fog 😉 1 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."

Frederic Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 @Shynil Hashim In Dubai you’ll find towpoints in below shop: https://adventurehq.ae/products/oztrail-4-5t-tow-hook?variant=31088758227023¤cy=AED&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gclid=Cj0KCQiApY6BBhCsARIsAOI_GjbgB5xGJXqD-BFTRplcbxfdVcrbb29xAC9Awl3JaP1wdpNAQvyAM08aAkz1EALw_wcB Any proper workshop can bolt them onto the chassis. Make sure it’s done properly and maybe put one on each side. 1 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."

Adib Samara Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 So I am unable to see any front towpoints - does this mean I won’t be able to attend? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
