Re: New replica tow hooks!

A lot of great information here on these aftermarket hooks, but after reading through the whole thread, I guess I'll never own a set basically because of the price. I wouldn't spend that much on the real deal, after all, they're just tow hooks. secondly, every ones concerned on strength of the hooks. If I were to spend that much on them I'd never have a chain on them from fear of scratching the finish. Also, I'm sure they're stronger than the frame of the truck which would suffer more damage than the hooks would. What about the hooks at the other end of the chain on the other guys truck or tractor who's pulling you out. Any one going to check those hooks to make sure they're satisfactory? You're most likely going to use straps for pulling your nice truck out of a ditch or on a trailer, and I'm sure those hooks, [ way over priced or not] will work just fine. Boy am I going to get beat up over this, LOL. and NO, I don't know who's selling them. Joe
