Chrome Hooks installed Front and Rear-Pics
Spent the weekend installing Chrome Recovery Hooks front and rear. Came out pretty nice. The fronts went on the OEM hook brackets that are welded to the bumper brackets. The rears mounted to the same nut strips as used for mounting a hitch. Both ends needed removal of the bumpers. and a bit of modification to the nut strips. Had to add an additional hole and weld on another nut. But each strip is attached to the jeep with four half inch bolts. Two of them going through the hooks. Its all tucked in pretty tight at the rear. The fronts are way cool visible under the front bumper.

I stopped using hooks long ago too dangerous and wish my WJ Overland didn't have them on it. I use D-Rings and straps for about everything or a snap-rope. I think the last thing I used a chain for was to drag was a dead cow. But do keep 100-150' of chain around for using boomer's with on a trailer.

All said, I just like the look of the chrome hooks.
Happy Trails every one!
