Tow hook placement on a 1997 XJ Sport
This is probably an extraordinarily dumb question, but is there any place to mount tow hooks on an XJ without using an aftermarket bumper? I'm fine with tearing things off

These by C4X4 offer more lateral support. BUT it's been mentioned elsewhere that hooks aren't allowed at off-road parks.

Just another option. I like this one because it ties the two sides together. There's also plenty more options out there.

Yes like said avoid "Hooks" use only D-Rings for all recovery and straps/rope, no chains. Like Earl said most all parks these are all that are allowed in the park for safety reasons.
