Hello. First time posting. I've been observing for about a month now as I'm about to start rebuilding a 2nd gen ram.
Anyway in my scavenging at the junk yard I found and bought a set of OEM front hooks. I'm having a hard time finding much about these other than one post where a guy was selling them on here for like $250, are they actually worth that much by virtue of being a bit of a rare find or something or was that guy just high in the sky?
The reason I ask is because I'm going to need a lot of other stuff for this build and a couple of hundred bucks profit may be worth selling them.

Thanks in advance!

 

Mainly because they are rare, and hard to find now. They only came on the Off-Road Edition trucks..... Don't think the dealers can even get them any more. If you have the hooks, and the brackets, they are indeed worth some coin. However, having tow hooks on the front of your truck can also be worth it's weight in gold, should you ever need to use them.

 

Thank you for your quick response! I remember how important tow hooks can be from when I was Jeep in, which is why I grabbed them, but man $200 profit would be nice for a lucky find and an hour's work. I'm for sure going to need to sleep on this one! :-D

Is there anything else I should look at getting off the truck they came on that might be worth some coin?

 

The front and rear axles were reinforced, and had 4.10 gears, and the rear should be LSD.

They sat about 2" taller than non-ORE trucks, so, springs might be worth something.... If nothing else, maybe a nice addition to YOUR truck?

Wheels were specific to that model as well. I think.....

If nothing else, some nice upgrades to be had there.

 

Dang! Thanks for the info! Wish I could grab the axles. I might grab the front springs. If you know anyone in the Utah area looking for those axles they're in the Salt Lake pick n pull.

 

They're rare yes but they're not specific to off-road editions. Mine came from a completely stock 95
