adding tow hooks
is there an easy way to add front tow hooks? a reciever hitch will take care of the rear, but without swapping out the front bumper is there a kit availible? I need to add them to my XJ also, I've needed them before and had to pull by wrapping the tow strap around the axle before, a tow hook would be so much easier.

they do make a kit that comes with new frame brackets that bolt on along with the stock bumper brkts. i would like to have a set but my brushguard mounts the same way and i dont think theres room for another brkt.

I think the after market kits run around $75. Here's what the OEM looks like. https://www.cherokeeforum.com/member...covery-points/

Here's the link for Rugged Ridge brand front tow hooks from quadratec.com. I believe you can find them cheaper than this. They shouldn't be too hard to put on.

I ordered mine directly from Rugged Ridge. I had to trim my lower bumper plastics a little bit, but they stood up great to three front recoveries the day after I put them on.
