A rear tow hitch is a good recovery for the rear but for the front you some times have to be creative autozone sells front tow hooks 10 bucks each but for my front i welded 1/4 plate to the unibody then welded a front hitch to the 1/4 plate it works awesome for me




Ignore the crappy welds on the side i went over them again
