Like xzMonkzzx, I too want to install some tow hooks on the front of my 95 Ford F-150 4x4.

I see FordPerf300's suggestion and was wondering if Warn's Tow Hooks might work? (P/Ns 13230 or 13200) http://www.warn.com/truck/accessories/tow_hooks.shtml

I put a front reciever on my 96 F250. I belive its made by Reese, but I'm sure others make one too. It mounts by removing the front bumper. The hitch goes between the mounts and the bumper. The one I bought also came with two nice big loops welded to it. I carry a pintle hitch and chain and can use them from either end to pull around stuck chevies and dodges or pull down small buildings. The front reciever is also great for moving around my boat trailer.

On the front of my 95, I used factory tow hooks from a 2000? chevy.The ones that bolt horizontly in the boxed frame. You just have to drill a hole across from the front factory hole and grind about 1/8" on each side of the hook,maybe more.Been awhile. Talk to a chevy machanic,they might have a couple kicking around for when they put snow plows on.
