tow hook casting number I.D. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hello,
I ran across a set of tow hooks today at a buddies shop, trying to I.D.
Casting # 596369-70 with a "U" in a hexagon. not sure what they are. I did a search here on site but didn't find anything that ID'd them for sure.

Thanks!
Richard

Here are a couple of OE RPO V76 tow hook side by side comparison/I.D. pictures for you to check out, your above posted number would be correct for the type pictured far left in both of these pics. Mel

FYI Tow hooks are forged not cast.
