I have a 2012 jeep liberty latitude. I know this sounds stupid, but are there any tow hooks that came standard on this model. I plan on using her on the beach for surf fishing. Thank's. :JEEPIN:

I think the tow hooks only come standard on the renegade trim, but the package can be ordered on any trim. If you don't see them, you probably don't have any. The front hooks are in the lower bumper opening and the rear hook is on the left side at the rear. If you have a trailer hitch, you can also use that for recovery.

They are pretty easy to install, just spend the extra money on the stud plate and don't use the M bolts.

The latitude was build pretty much as a Mall Crawler so no hooks were installed.
But any tow hooks from 2002-2012 Libertys will work
Atthehelm also makes a great HD bracket to mount where the tow hooks go for towing out of the sand/ mud etc
I would highly suggest going that route, much stronger than even stock tow hooks

Thank's all. I like the tow mounts you have. Do they install easy, or do you have to remove the front bumper cover to install them as on some other brands. This month I'm having a rear trailer hitch installed . Next month I'll get your mount's. :JEEPIN:

Yes you do have to remove the bumper cover to install them...It's the only way to get the backing plates in there that sandwich the unibody. Install really isn't too bad though 8)
