Tow Hooks
I noticed the '91's were the last year for the non-accordion style frame to which the bumper is mounted. Are the 2 bolt holes appropriate spots for recovery hooks? I have a pair that fit almost perfectly. The rearmost bolt has a very small clearance problem. Any advice? Thanks a bunch!!

btw I asked about the effect on the later models accordion frame horns if the Bronco was rutted badly. Most towers said they never saw a problem when pulling one out with the add-on tow hooks. I did get flamed badly in the other big bronco message boards once for questioning the effects on the accordion section (and calling it a "sub-frame"). Anyway, a local 4x4 shop owner who I respect for his hands-on knowledge does not recommend tow hooks on these accc. frames. In fact he refuses to do it.
