Default Tow hooks with a 4th gen bumper

I've been trying to find this answer but have been able to so far. I have a 2002 ram 2500 diesel 4x4. The last owner added a 4th gen front bumper. I am looking to add a set of tow hooks but Don't know if I have to use the ones from the 2nd gen or if I can use a set off a 4th gen. I was hoping to find a set at the local yard but it looks like I may have to drive out of town to find a pick and pull yard to look at the mounting myself. Could one you save me some diesel and answer this question?

Whatever you do, you want to make sure that the tow hooks are bolted into the frame infrastructure of the bumper to ensure that they won't pop off when put under heavy load. The 2nd gen tow hooks have steel boxes that bolt to the frame and the hooks bolt to the steel boxes.
