Cool No front tow hooks?1?

I didn't notice when I bought my 2009 Sport 4x4, that it didn't have tow hooks on the front. I dont want to ruin my spoiler to pull anyone out either. Does anyone have a source for an offset chain hook or something?

I havent seen anyone try it on a Sport. If you look at the front valence you'll notice that SLT, Laramie, TRX and ST have an offset in the bumper where the hooks go. On the sport I think you would have to trim the bumper valence and the insert. IMO would look nasty. I'm not 100% sure but, I'd like to find out.

Dave, if you have a question feel free to post, no need to use search unless you want to.

Typically on trucks that do not come with the tow hooks, you have to retro a new tow hook compliant valence (has holes for the tow hooks which I had to get for my Laramie). You can also cut the one on there instead of buying a new one.

I'd like to see a picture of tow hooks on a sport for anyone that has done it.
