Is The D Ring On Patriot Ball Mount PH32NR Capable Of Off-Road Recovery On Jeep?

Published 09/02/2025

Question:

I like the idea of the built-in D-ring. Is that strong enough to use for off-road recovery with my Jeep? or is that part not rated as high as the balls?

Yes Marcus, the integrated D-ring on the # PH32NR is also rated for 30,000 lbs, so it’s more than capable for recovery work when mounted in your receiver. That’s one of the perks of this 4-way design - it’s not just for towing.

Do you plan to leave it in full time for dual use, or swap between recovery gear and a ball mount?
