Tow Hook Options Options

[trdproven]

Since some of our cars are lowered, what options do we have that fit perfectly for a front mount tow hook? Using the OEM tow hook is just too low and will ruin the bumper of course. Any ideas?

when they tow my car, then put a piece of wood over the chain to keep it from hurting the body kit.. haven't had a problem yet..

airbags was even better cuz I could jack that thing up higher than stock.. LOL

only ever use the rear to tow.

ALWAYS request a flat bed, and give the dude instructions on how to do his job.

LOL Sounds like me. I think they get aggrevated sometimes but I don't give a $hit - it's my car and I'm paying them [or the insurance is w/e]

Why? I don't get this. Does it harm if you are using the front to tow?

[playr158]

if you are too low like some of us, or if you have a body kit, the front tow hooks are not accessible or the tow cable will hit your bumper leading to potential damages. the rear is normally exposed/high enough to be used without damaging anything

even if you tow from the rear or put it on the flat bed, the front bumper might scrape the bottom or worse bend the front bumper.
