Rough Country Nudge Bar on a BS Badlands??

[CyberSchoolBusNJ]

Losing the recovery points sucks. If you’re going for looks then the Bull bars are it. But they cause more damage during an impact than without one. I’d run the FRL one though since it looks beefy and isn’t made out of tin and has spots for d rings

I've never been off-roading- but I plan to- so sorry if this is a dumb question. Would D-rings mounted to the bar be significantly better for recovery than wrapping the strap around the bar itself?

recovery points closest to the frame connection would be optimal
leverage could quickly become problematic for a misplaced strap

Yhat nudge bar seems to only mount using two bolts per side. The tow hooks also has a long bolt going through the Frame. There is also extra reinforcement on the frame area on a Badlands. I wouldn't use that bar at all for recovery. IMHO.
These are just light bars. With that being said, the Rally Innovations (they have one for maintaining the tow hooks) mounting bracket adapted to use with the round bar is what someone needs to fabricate for us.
