Aftermarket or factory tow hooks?
Just bought the wife a 2015 Durango AWD Citadel package and we've already managed to get it stuck in the snow, much to my disappointment i found Dodge again failed to install or provide tow hooks or any decent place to hook onto it, why these are not standard option ill never know but anyway. I can find pictures online of what appears to be factory tow hooks but when i look up in the vehicle lookup to order parts i can't find anything. I am planning on installing a rear receiver so atleast there will be a place to hook i would really appreciate front tow hooks also. Looking at the picture it appears you need a different bumper or at least the mess screen is different? any input would be appreciated thanks
the factory tow hooks from a grand cherokee should fit, but as you mentioned the block out panels would be different, you can likely just remove them, or cut them yourself if you cant find replacements (i have no clue if the jeep panels would fit, id expect the bumpers to be too different, but ya never know)
Just curious what kind of tires do you have on the Durango and depth of tread? Many "all season" tires don't cut it in snow, yet we run them thinking the AWD system will compensate for the tires. Have you considered running dedicated winter tires for your climate? Tow hooks might be my second option.

Reviving this dead topic as winter fastly approaches again, I still haven't figured much out. I have holes in the frame for what looks like a factory hook setup but the front screen doesn't have the knockouts for tow hooks access
Wondering about an RV tow bar setup the little holes to cut for them would be better then half the bumper for tow hooks

SRT probably doesnt have mounting points because it was intended to be a 'performance' car in SUV guise, SRT is Street and Racing Technologies (iirc) so there was 0 intent that an SRT would ever be used off road when it was designed. . . .
A while back I pulled a bunch of tow hooks off F-150 and Furd Expeditions at the bone yard. Good heavy steel with nice bracing cast in. (I guess Furds get stuck a lot.) They have two good sized holes. You'll need to drill holes to mount them and as for the bumper cover in front, you'll have to notch or cut openings for them.
That's where they messed up, this thing Is faster than a Hellcat Gladiator for $150k+ lol. Im not doing any rock climbing, but handled Devils Cove, and most of Death Valley wonderfully. Still has power to do 0-60 in 4.3 with 32" All terrains and a 2.5" lift.
