Where can I get these M-Bolts?

Front tow hooks for 2009 liberty

Could try dealer, I believe they're called M bolts. You could also use bolts, but you would have to remove front bumper. There is a post some where here on how to do it.

Dealer says no they only come in the kit.
I have the other ones that need the bumper removed for sure, thats why I want these.
thanks

stubble post what you have... and i'm sure some of the other KJ guys can chime in cause the hooks are the same

The tow hooks come stock with either the tow package or the skid plate group package I not sure which one. So try to get a replacement stock part,not an accessory part.I looked on the parts break down post, page 220 # 13-505 but did'nt find a part number.

You might be able to start with a U bolt and bend it to roughly this shape . That would be a lot easier if you could borrow an M bolt from someone. I'm not really sure what that would do to its strength though.

When I got my tow hook, it didn't come with the hardware. I went to the dealer and they were able to come up with the hardware by the next day. Here is a picture I took that shows the part number on the bag of hardware. I don't know if you can order just the bag separately.

If you want to see what was in the bag, it is in the 3rd picture in the post I did about the installation at http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=88&p=557146#p557146

I hope this helps. Good luck. :JEEPIN:

Did you say your M bolts are inside? If that is the case, I will suggest to fish them. I had the same problem, and I did not want to remove the bumper.
This is what I did:
1. used a multi-Bit Screwdriver w/ Telescopic Handle it has a magnet in the tip (but you could use anything that has a magnet).
2. String.

Okay now the process:
I started to fish for it once the magnet touched the m bolt, I aligned it some what near the hole and used the string to tight the end of the m bolt, that way you will be able to manipulate it. at this point the you will have to make the make the m bolt stand by pulling down on the string and using the magnet to give it leverage. Hope this info is not to confusing. It will be tricky and you will need some patience but it can be done. I noticed it has happened to other people and they have used the magnet. Don't know how exactly they used it but if you are willing to spend some time fishing, it can be done.

I got my hooks and mounting hardware (M bolts) from Savage Dodge Chrysler Jeep out of PA. I don't have thier contact info off hand. Try Googling them and see what you come up with. Hope this helps.

stubble88 · **Posted:** Tue Mar 23, 2010 7:13 pm

Ive called 4 dealers that are around me here in CA none of them know :furious:

about tow hooks, or this part.
Question is: Is this a Mopar part or just an after market tow hook some Jeep dealers sell?

I ordered my hooks and mounting hardware (#1-82206124) through jparts.com which is linked through Savage DCJ. These hooks are for the 02-07 KJs but the mounting holes on the KK are the same. These are MOPAR parts. For about 95 bucks you get L and R hooks, mounting hardware, (M bolts came with mine) and a set of "directions". Easy enough to follow. The local dealership wanted $100+ just for passenger side hook not to mention labor if you want them to put on. My order was shipped next day and I had everything three days after that. It took about an hour to put them on. Just be gentle around hoses on driver's side lower cooling unit. The hook will fit.

Search back through older threads on LOST and you'll find tons of discussion on the hooks, installation tips, and a fantastic photo sequence on mounting. I have to apologize on forgetting who posted the photos, but you did a really nice job.

Good luck.

I haven't posted for sometime, but last year I installed tow hooks to the front of my 08 KK. The Dealership wanted something like $200 for them, but the local autowrecker sold to two off a KJ with hardware for $40. I just pulled the front bumper, thanks to the write up here and threw the hooks in. It was quick, easy, and alot cheaper than buying new.
