i looked for a long time and only saw tow hooks like the optional factory ones that require the front bumper to be removed. then i found these, i got them off ebay, you can use d rings, or hooks.

they worked great, install was easy, and a good design. no bumper removal, all hardware was there. just thought i'd pass that along, cuz front tow points on xj doesn't have many options, i think this is farely new.

i don't have anything to do with them, just satisfied customer.

 

hmmm i am in the market for front tow points and have never seen those before. Are they strong? Have you been yanked on them yet?

 

can you take a pic from below so that we can see how it mounts,, thanx

 

go to the website and click more pics under the first box

 

didnt saw it,, nice pics, it explain well for them self.. I might do this in a future..

 

yeah thats what im thinking i dont mind paying extra money if i can use D shackles much stronger and safer

 

Try this link for shackles, they have the best prices I could find in my area.

BTW, I used them and their customer service is excellent!! HTH!! Later!!

 

ya, i've used them, very strong, good design. uses steering box mounts, sway bar mounts and couple other existing holes. and there's holes for a gear box on the right side, cuz they made them right side drive also, so all holes were there.

d rings are nice, and safer. the factory style i don't think alloy d rings. probably the only other way to get d rings is an expensive front bumper.

 

More pics of it. I like them too so far.

 

^ya, same ones. cool. beats removing and/or replacing front bumper

 

they look good and if they work well even better where did you guys order them from just the company website?

 

Another option is a front trailer hitch..etrailor.com sells some for the front that are around $100...I think the front hitch it the route I will go since it will also allow me to run a winch if I want..

 

i found them on ebay, but its the same from their website.

 

ok one more question i was looking how they would mount on my jeep today and the front swaybar tie down is right there do they give you a new bracket or how does that all work out?
