I need to build a tow bar for flat towing my TJ. I've got a bullet proof type bumper with the shackle mounts on it and want to attach to those points with the tow bar. It's plenty strong, 3/4" steel welded front and back, but want to know if there are any things I need to be careful of when designing and fabricating this tow bar.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Donny
