Ive been going down all the avenues for towing points; hitches & tow hooks. I know the hitches have more pulling power and can be stronger but im not looking to tow anything here. Im looking to have enough tow points to get yanked outta the mud safely. SO i first searched the board, and tho everyone preffers having hitches, i did find a few XJ's that had tow hooks bolted roght to yhe frame rail, next to the leaf packs in the rear and same for the front. Those people said they'd never had one ounce of trouble.
Now the reason for my thread is that im in need for all 4 tow points but the budget is low and going with the hooks saves me well over $200 bucks!! Just the hitches alone cost from $119 to $160-ish!! The tow hooks are $20-$30 bucks for a pair and come with the hardware!!
Now what id like to see is if i missed anyone who could back this up and reply with some pics of front and back tow hooks and tell a little on how they have worked for them. One more thing, for the front, im not talking about the tow hook & brackets they sell for $75 bucks because i have the brush guard in the front and the mounting plates take up that spot so i need an alternate for the front.
Anyone who replies with decent info would greatly help here!! THANKS!!
