69-72 K10 tow hooks dimensions

Hello all,

I am looking for measurements of the distance between the holes center to center of the factory front tow hooks. 5/8" hole correct? I've seen the location and angles but not the distance across the hooks themselves.

I am making tow points out of 5/8 or 3/4 thick straight stock going to shackles to hang far enough below the line of the bumper.

I want to drill the holes in the frame correct to factory or dealer spec in case I ever go to factory style hooks someday.

Thanks!

3 1/4" center to center. 5/8" hole may be snug. 11/16" may be better.
