hitch and tow hooks
my truck is 4 wheel drive and is missing both of these essential pieces...which makes going anywhere off-road hairy.
this weekend, I'll be ordering them.
what's the hookup on these?
I see the curt hitch for ~100$ on summit racing, but I figure there's a better source that someone knows?
I also see the tow hooks on the mopar site for ~115$, which seems a bit steep except that the whole kit is there, which seems handy....
does anyone have these used, but in like-new condition? where did you buy yours?

This is the cheapest that I have found the tow hooks shipped to my door:

The Raider and the Dakota use the same tow hooks/part number.

The bushings on top that act as nuts for the front body mount bolts (where the tow hooks attach) can be a pia to get out they like to rust to the bolts and will just spin as you turn the bolts. I would suggest that if they do this to you cut them and drill out the bushing with a 1/2" drill bit and replace the bolts and put nuts on top it will make things easier if you ever have to loosen them

Just last week I found a curt hitch on ebay and it was $73 after shipping, Other than lucky finds like this on ebay Rockauto has the cheapest of what you are looking for. All I got was the one little piece that bolts to your bumper support where you can bold ***** to on the bumper and it also bolts to the two existing tow hooks. here is the link to what i am talking about on ebay, it is still a class 3 hitch but i just happened to stumble upon one that was for sale for $60 on ebay last week.
