I got two brand new front tow hooks with mounting hardware from Mopar Parts America last year for about $90. Not sure what you are looking at that costs that much. |

Sorry I'm new here so didnt realy know where to post it. I look at mopar parts .com I think it was. They have a Jeep spot and it said $172 a side which is nuts, So I thought I would just build some Dring hooks. Whats the mounting hard where look like? do I need any thing special or to make any thing? |

Usually about $95 to $115 depending on where you get them from. That price does include both tow hooks and the mounting hardware IIRC. Or wait and keep a lookout in the marketplace section for a set to come up for sale. |

IIRC a member used the stock tow hook brackets and a part from a hitch bar to make a set of recovery points that used the D-ring. I might do the same thing myself later if me and the hooks don't get along  .

Thats what I was thinking and they offer a better Hi-Lift lift point and I would feel better with the Drings. There the next thing on the list I just put a straight pipe on today sounds sweet I love it and am vary happy with how it went. So do I need a top bracket on the top side of the bumper ? And is it hard to get them up there ? I'm thinking about using 1/2 inch plate on it all and then cutting out the three bolt pattern and then putting two of the plates together so the D-ring isnt all over the place and then have them keyed and welding them in. Tell me what you all think about that. Thanks Jim |
