you don't really need to have anything back there, in the tow hitch... The handy-dandy yuppie special (d-ring or hook) looks nice, but it's really a waste of $$.

I mean, if you have it sitting around, then by all means, feel free. But you can have the same effect by just fishing the strap into the hitch & securing it w/ a hitch pin. Only reason you would HAVE to have the suburbanite special, is if you're using a 3" or larger recovery strap, as those are pretty hard to fit into a receiver. The 2" is perfect, though, and honestly, is already more than enough for our size vehicle anyways.
