I have a '95 Dakota and am wondering where the tow points are on this thing.....its a truck, it should have some but cant find any. Maybe I'm just overlooking something, i dont know. ANy help clearing this up for me would be appreciated. Also, I want to start off roading and mudding with it, its a 4x4 so i dont think ill have any problems, but should any major upgrades be done before I even attempt this?



Thanks,
Mike

 

alot of people take the plastic skirt off from underneath the front bumper and attach tow hooks

 

my 89 is fine for light off roading, but for mudding i call it instastuck traction, the 3.9 isnt powerful enough to get the tires spinning in some situations especillay if there is some clay mixed in with the mud. there are some holes built into the front frame members of an 89 that will accept a hook, you made need to add hooks if you dont have them, on the rear i tie to the frame mounted tow bar, not the bumper tow point .

 

The best way is to custom install tow hooks on your self. the way i did it i had some metel just biger than 1/4 in. i drilled holes in it and installed it on the bumber bracket and the frame. i bought tow hooks from 4wheelparts.com for 15 dollers each and mouted them on that plate i installed.I have a hitch on the back i bought a reciver with a D ring shackel on it for 30 and no problems from anything i broken plenty of tow ropes pulling out people but no bending or braking with the fronts or rear. (I use the fronts more)
