Hey
I am new to the off road scene. But i wanna put tow hooks on my xj. I am on a real tight budget and was thinking of making my own. I know rusty's sells brackets andi was thinking about basically copying the design. Get a think peice of steel and matching the holes with the bumber mount. But now is where i was thinking somthing different.
could i just make it a flat peice. no "L" shape? Just have it sticks out on the bottom far enought to be lower than the bumper. then i would cut a hole down low and put a D shaped shackle... Sorry i am really bad at explaining things. If this makes sense to anyone, do you think this is a good or a bad idea? any other ideas... please let me know. Thanks, Johnny
