i like it alot!
The upper mount hole fit just fine, the base bracket had two holes, One fit just fine, but my hilift only had one hole. I did have to add a hole to my hilift base, and slightly slot one of the holes in the bracket to accept the bolt through my new hole. THis wasnt the bracket's fault, it was the lift's. That being said, I have no doubt that one bolt would hve held it just fine, i just felt better personally with two in there. (and i was bored and alone in the garage with power tools, not a good situation
)

Rear recovery point
I bought just the hook since I had an extra 2" hitch with no ball on it. Made a sleeve out of two pieces of pipe (a piece of it sitting next to the hitch below) to reduce the 1" ball stud hole down to 1/2" and drilled another 1/2" hole. Also drilled another pin hole so it's not sticking out too far from the bumper. Saved about 40 bucks over buying the whole unit I guess.
