I have a DRT hitch skid that I leave in there. I like the DRT because it protects the safety chain eyes from getting bent. When I wash the truck I remove it, clear all the debris out, brush it and touch up the paint with some rattle can to prevent rust. The DRT hitch skid has a mount for a shackle and I use it for gentle recoveries, it's not meant for snatch / kinetic rope recoveries. I keep a Factor 55 hitch link in the truck that I use for snatching / kinetic rope recovery. I just saw the post about tearing off the receiver itself, but there's no way you're going to tear the receiver off the frame before you'd break one of the factory tow hooks. That doesn't make any sense at all to me. It's a great recovery point when you utilize it with the appropriate equipment. Just my 2 cents, I did not stay at a holiday inn Express last night for full context.
