IF you haven't got one bolted on it is the two bolts on the bottom of the chassi rail at the very front.

ignore the model the chassi rails a near identical between the WD21 and the R20
 
On my 2.7, It had a pig tail thing, bolted to the chassis, on my 3.0 it's got an eye type affair.
 
Ah ok, I'll go have a look in a bit.

Will also snap some Picts of my Tirfor too now the weather is nice :D

the hooks are cast and rated, the plate and eye type are not and most 4wd clubs here will say not to use them when on trips.

No pics...:eek: but I can advise some info...
There are two threaded holes in each chassis member, and the tow point is normally on the driver's side.

The hook is a pig tail hook.
The same fixing points are used for the front bull bar when fitted.

I fitted a front tow bar to mine, for when launching the boat.

At a guess I think the bolts are M12 x 1.25 but that is from memory.
Anyway, the same as Picasso wheel bolts:augie.
 
The 2.7 had the same as Bud's picture, only the one though.
 
Thanks guys. What a great bunch on here, still gets me every time :D
 
OK here you go Alex a pic of mine, Nissan penny pinched after 2003'ish & stopped fitting the pig tails:doh I managed to get a pig tail from the scrap yard just need another one for the other side now. Anyway if you look at the pic you'll see 2 loop hanging down these are the tie down points but Nissan made the drivers side longer on the later models I think to act as a recovery point:augie
