I have a 92 F-150, and I wanted to put tow hooks in the front under the bumper. My question is does anyone know if this is do able. If so who makes them and where can I get them? Thanks

 

Should be able to get a pair of 10,000 lb forged tow hooks with mounting hardware at your local autoparts store for about 10 bucks each.

I have leaf spring mounts under the front of my frame rails (F350 4x4), so what I did was put a front reciever hitch on the truck and made a tow hook attatchment that slides into the 2" box hitch opening and secures with a regular 5/8" hitch pin. It's real convenient to use and can be used in either end of the truck, since I have reciever hitch both front and rear. I like it because when I hook up a chain or tow strap, I'm pulling right from the center of the truck, using both sides of the frame equally. The front hitch is useful for other things too. I use it to mount my bike/cargo carrier to. It can be used with a portable winch as well.

The thing consists of one of those tow hooks I described earlier bolted to about a foot or so long piece of 2x2 OD by 1/4" wall square steel tube with a 5/8" hole through it for the hitch pin. Cost me about 20 bucks for the tow hook, hardware and hitch pin. The steel I had already in the garage leftover from another project.

 

Thanks SoCal, I will try the parts store. I like the sound of your set-up, sound slick.
Thanks

 

On a previous truck I also had a front receiver hitch, which made it much easier to use the long curved boat ramp at my favorite fishing place.

 

for tow hooks...how do you mount them to the frame and access them without a body lift...
