Those pictures will be edited so they are abit smaller and I'll cut all the stuff out that doesn't need to be there.

But there are the brackets and what they look like on. They cost me $40 for a pair and I'm selling them for $40 a pair. The bolts I'll sell to you at $4 and shipping on average has been $8.
So if you want tow hooks the brackets w/ all the hardware will cost ya $56 shipped to your door.
E-mail me if you have any questions. Knobbyman@yahoo.com

You mean for 2001+ right? Our fronts don't have the cut outs in them. Unless theres something you have that we don't know about.

GAH!! yep sorry guys..
I thought the 2000's had the holes also.
Last time I checked for those of u that dont have the holes in the front Mopar did make tow hooks... That might have changed but I don't know.

Got two questions, are there already holes in the frame(or where ever you mount them) or do you have to make your own? Also is the $56 everything (Hooks, bolts and brakets?)

Holes are already in the frame.. Your bumper is mounted to it.. It's the stablization brackets. $56 includes the brackets & the hardware you need the towhooks *which usually come w/ the 2 bolts needed for them* Walmart has the tow hooks for under $15 each in crome. You can also get black hooks after market and I even saw Stainless steal hooks *way to expensive although cool*.

If you want to see where the holes are look right behind where the foglights are/would be there are two bolts on the frame .. that's them.

If any of you have a quick question feel free to AIM me my name is "Knobbyman".

Knobbyman,

How do you cut your brackets out? I have a simular design in mind and will cut them out on a laser cutter. I plan to add a gusset for more support. Just a word of caution. When selling stuff like this, you take on a liability for your consumers safety. I.e. if someone was towing someone out of a ditch and your bracket broke and a person got hurt, your ass is on the line. With the world being lawsuit crazy, keep that in mind. Great idea you have though.

why do they cost you $40 a pair. I fabricate metal parts all the time. it would cost me less than $5 for the steel for both and 10 minutes to cut it with my plasma cutter.

Well I'm using a lazer not a plasma cutter and I'm using higher quality steel... True you could make them cheeper but the quality wouldn't be there.
