I have heard that this is the correct way to mount and it would make sense. Hooks should go down and out with the curl.
If you were in need of a tow, this would give the best position. As you were pulled forward and the towing chain hooked to the lower hook, the chain would ride up into the curl, preventing it from flying off.
Antone else?
