Hey guys. I'm running a stock front and rear bumper on my truck and want to add some tow hooks before winter so I can help my neighbors out of our neighborhood. Any tips or advice on mounting would be appreciated. Pix would be even better.

In the back I'm just going to get some huge ones and weld them to my hitch frame, but I'm not sure about what to do for the front.

The stock front hooks are plenty beefy enough to drag the neighbors cars around in the snow. Does your truck not have them?

Nope no stock tow hooks surprisingly. Are these what the stockers look like?
