Warn Recovery Gear D Ring Kit?

[Good jeep]

Will this install in the back of 2022 Wrangler Rubicon rear area where the hook is. I called Warn they said it was designed for the front.
I thought this would be better than the one hook that came with the jeep rear. Looks like it would be better for any type of recovery from the rear. Would use this to replace the factory hook.
Any input would be appreciated.

These are made for the rear and look a bit different.

Agreeing with @BDinTX on this. Use the right tool. I had these on my JK and they performed well. Saved me from some crushed rear corners for sure. Never used them for recoveries, but they held up amazing as a skid and keeping the factory rear bumper from being destroyed.

I would run these on my JL, but I can sell my factory rear steel bumper and put the money of the cost of these towards a rear bumper and get something with better clearance and looks.

I put them on for this very reason. I've seen too many problems with the backup sensors not working in aftermarket bumpers though to try that myself.

BDinTX,
Thanks for the info. Will order and try to do the install.

You bet.
The cross bolts for the recovery points were binding up for me when I installed.

It’s possible that was because I’d already come down on my bumper a few times but it didn’t appear visibly bent.

When I loosened these other nuts I was finally able to get the RP cross bolts through. The top nut is a real PITA to get to though so I wouldn’t recommend loosening them unless you need to.

Edit: The gold brace under the nuts aren't original. The factory ones will be black.
