Got my tow strap. Front tow hook is replaced and secured (Thanks Adam for the help), plus I have the Hitch pin on the back, found one at Harbor Freight with a nice big red handle to quickly & easily remove.

So if I get stuck in the mud I'm about as prepared as I can be to be pulled out by one of you kind 4x4 folks smile
