In today's episode of The Average Garage. We Trial and Fit some MCC Rated Recovery points to a QE pajero sport without a roobar! Dont forget to use store code TAG10 at mcarmor4x4.com...
looking for the points?

Alright folks, just quickly before we get into the video there’s a few key points i need to cover.
The plates I’ve developed are not for sale just yet as i need clarification on legality and liabilities. Therefore, i DO NOT accept any liability from anyone replicating these or fitting them poorly etc.
If MCC do not add these to their kit i will release the blueprints for people to have them made up themselves. But again I can’t be held responsible for anyone doing whatever they will with those blueprints.
I can’t comment on how these plates affect ADR approval of the recovery points, or if they change any liability from MCC. The chance of the product or plates failing is extremely minimal and there are several factors to consider, like common sense and due diligence when recovering and the fitting of the products.
The plates are simply there to replicate a Roo bar mount around the chassis to allow the complete assembly to properly clamp to the chassis and not just float there like the kit is currently supplied from MCC.
I’m currently working with MCC to try and have the plates checked by their engineers and approved to be part of a “no bar” kit by MCC to retain all ADR approval and liability with MCC.
Lastly, I’m not sure these will work with a nudge bar being the nudge bar mounts to the chassis in a similar spot as well as other branded Roo bars on the market, I’m not sure of compatibility.
Thanks for reading. Please enjoy
Disclaimer! I take no responsibility or liability for anyone who re-enacts or copies this process, it is done at your own risk and always refer to the relevant local authorities and design regulations.
This is the FIRST in AUS that I'm aware of and Hopefully MCC will add these as part of a "no bar" kit!

Ive been looking at this same problem a few weeks ago and came up with the same idea. There's a threaded hole in the chassis in that area that I was going to add an additional faster to the spacer plate I was going to make for my MR triton. Offroad Central fitted some Mcc recovery points to a pajero sport recently and it looked like the recovery point was flush to the chassis with the spacers under the bolt heads to use the same bolts. Still left the problem of the forward mounting point being an inch away from the front crash bar but a spacer could be added here and a new hole drilled in the crash bar. It's great that mcc is involved and we could end up with rated recovery points with this mod. It's frustrating a solution hasn't been found till now! Awesome work guys!
That's the exact issue we ran into the first time we tried to fit them. But i wasn't keen on modifying the crash bar or mounting the points in any way other than the specified way to make sure it's as safe and practical as possible.
Make this MCC and I shall buy it. Great work!
Good effort boys. Hopefully the computations make them a viable solution..
Impressed . . . and it's shaping up to be a good outcome. 👍
Tha k's mate. Hopefully MCC come to the party
The main thing you didn't actually show in the video, or I missed it, is what the actual modified plates you had made to enable the recovery points to clamp to the chassis rails. Was that the bit you were reaming threads in to?
Agree.
sorry peeps, no it isn't, it's just a plate, its actually shown at 5:33, granted not well, but was designed to mimic the roobar to allow the clamping of the chassis
@@T.A.G didn't notice. Would you be able to show the parts, explaining what each bit is please for the uneducated. Appreciate all you are doing to facilitate this happening for those of us without front bars.
@@peterrschuck I can put a post in the facebook page mate. Still waiting to hear from MCC regarding this also. Hopefully I'll hear back by this week
@@T.A.G if you could then we would all know what each part is so it's clear for everyone.
Great effort and great video. If these become legal, are tested and make MCC I will definitely but them.
Question though, I have Boo’s Bash Plate fitted, would like to know if you think it might be a problem as you had to modify the standard BP.
Thanks again guys!!
I think boos will be fine but if not an angle grinder will fix it quick
Hey mate. Great video and thanks heaps. FYI...MCC now have a complete rated solution (including adapter plates) so that their recovery points can be fitted to an MR Triton without a bullbar. I have purchased the kit and am currently going mad trying to work out how to pop the front bumper off, so that I can install the recovery points. Do you happen to have instructions or a video on how to remove the front bumper from an MR Triton? Cheers
I don't sorry mate. I have a video of removing the bumper on the pajero sport. Should be similar. There's usually hidden bolts behind the plastic trim on the bumper in the middle lower section
@@T.A.G thanks mate. The disassembly looks fairly similar..... but I am yet to find that last hidden bolt/clip :-( Cheers
@@paulmicallef3837 hey mate, how are you?there is any chance you can give me some advice about does recovery points? Cheers

@@mcc4x4accessories did you end up using the design of plate that I sent you the plans for? Noone on your team gor back to me
Real sweat boy's , great job.
thanks mate
my has a nudge bar will the recovery points still fit
No
I’m still a little unclear what additional items are required and what they do to enable them to be mounted.
The plates that I made that mimic a bar are what's needed.
They enable the complete assembly to clamp the chassis
2016 triton Mr do you make them and where car I get
Have a chat to mick at offroad daily :)
I tried to look for the recovery points on MCC site and couldn’t find it... any links?
mcarmor4x4.com.au/product/mcarmor-recovery-points/
If you have aftermarket bash plates, I'm guessing there might be some adjustments required.
What are they rated to?
I think after market bash plates will clear. If not. Nothing a grinder can't fix.
Not sure on the total rating. But trying to find out
Excellent work mate! I have the black edition nudge bar connecting to the same area. Do you think this won't fit together with the black edition nudge bar?
I believe its not compatible with a nudge
Can these be mounted on the MR Triton without your mount
Not sure mate
I'm not willing to bet either as they're advertised to fit a pajero sport without a bar but they don't
I've seen a couple of posts on Facebook where they used the mcc recovery point and mounted them on an MR Triton without the front bar. I only want them for aesthetics not to use them for recovery
@@scaredyet I wouldn't advise fitting them without the plan to use them. Much like a winch you'd rather have them and not need them, than need them and not have them. If they're there they may aswell work in my eyes.
Yea looking for mr ... standard bar will be using well hopefully not haha
Good day, A message has appeared on the dashboard of my 2018 Paj sport GLS. It reads " keyless system service required" I don't know how to clear it, I tried battery disconnecting and no luck, check the owners manual and no luck either. I called mitzi dealer and book it, but do you have any idea what the issue might be? Thanks mate.
Not sure sorry mate. You'll need a scan tool to clear it. Sometimes a generic obd2 can clear the codes but it may be a mitsi only code which requires a proper scan tool that are usually over 1k
Will the front recovery point offered for the MQ Triton for the MR triton as well?
You'd have to check with the supplier sorry mate
2:10 its an mcc recovery point not mcarmor. They are different company isn't?
sister companys
Keen to get these on mine
Hi ,have you been able to find recovery points yet ??? for the MR
Can't say sorry I've been off this topic for a while now :)
@@michaeldelahunty2440 everything I've seen needs a bullbar
