just wondering where i could mount sum towhooks on my xj without cutting or welding anything up. also dont wana pay rough country 150 bux when they commin off as soon as i can get my bumpers

 

These: http://www.quadratec.com/products/76045_802.htm. There may be cheaper options from the aftermarket as well. You can also keep your eyes peeled in the for sale section of CF, craigslist and junk yards for used or factory tow hook brackets.

 

I wish i could use the CF buy and sell but i live in canada land

 

Go to a scrap yard.

 

I picked up my front tow hooks from rustysoffroad.com they ran around 90 dollars after shipping and I was able to use them with and aftermarket bumper. 100% bolt on

 

Found a set brackets & hooks on e bay about 2 months ago 75.00 shipped bolted right on.

 

best deal ur gonna find for both brakets and hooks.

 

Does any know if they'll mount to the factory bumper on a 99 limited without having to modify

 

Towhooks don't mount to the bumper, but they will work with any factory bumper...

 

Do the tow hooks go through the little openings down near the fog lights openings or do you have to cut a holes in the bumper to fit them through?

 

yea I know the bracket mounts to the frame, I just wanted to make sure I wouldnt have to modify the bumper for them to fit.

I found the rugged ridge model here for $82 after shipping http://thejeephut.com/heavy-duty-tow...e-p-32135.html

 

you end up buying that? i like that set up..does it bolt right in with out drilling?

 

dang, those are on sale now. Must... resist... urge... to... buy...

 

I got them, but havnt put them on yet. The jeep hut left off my apartment number on the address, after contacting them they made me track down FedEx and fix their mistake. They should bolt right on, no drilling, but you do have to take the bumper off.

 

I assume that you mean that you have to remove the bumper and then reinstall as part of the installation process, not that they are incompatible with the bumper...?
