I was looking under my 2008 kk for tow points in case I would need to pull or to be pulled . I have no hitch ( at least not yet ) so there seems to be little place to hook up except on the suspension.What do you guys use for tow points? |

dont forget the shipping bolt holes on the 4 corners of the frame inside the wheels.. they are oblong holes and you can see the metal is double thickness on these points. |

Definitely try not to use the suspension, you might end up with more issues after you get un-stucked. ![]() |

My daughter had to pull me out of a snow bank once. My 09 had 1 hook on the front and all she had was her front skid plate. I had to hook to that (lucky, there was a hole in a bend of the plate so the hook fit right in). It worked fine. If I had to do it again though, I would have drove around and hooked to the rear of my rig vs the front but I didn't want to get her's stuck too. However, I did learn that her 02 Limited goes WAY BETTER in the snow then my 09. The same up to the berm was about over a foot. The bank I centered on was 3 feet and hard. If I had hit it with more power, I would have went up and over, instead, it went up and stopped, then settled. Skid plates made it like a pie pan and wheels couldn't get a grip. |
