I'm not sure how they will bolt up but I know some guys have put them on our trucks before. I'm waiting on Bobby Villa to come from Texas this morning, so I'll get you a price this afternoon between the football games. Thanks Randy

I put the 73 style hooks on my truck. Its shaped like a J. I used one orginal hole and had to drill the second. Its a tight fit between the spring mount and the bumper..

Mine are off a 73-80, J style. The ones I told you about on ebay are rear ones.

those hooks on eBay aren't original rear hooks...original ones have three mounting holes, not two. Do a search for rear towhook, there have been pics posted of them before.
The ones on eBay might be from a C/40-up, but I am not sure.

I won the auction in the above post there not nos but close, that was good enough for me. he told me he had 3 or four more sets, can't bet the price I can email his email to you. pm me.
the prob with the frount hooks is most mount to the bottom of the frame, not the side like org. see link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ory=34204&rd=1

There's a couple sets on ebay that are about ready to end with no bids yet, they are the large truck,bus type but chrome, usually the chrome ones were on fire trucks, look at his other auctions for the other set, starting bid at 15 and 20 bucks. These might work good on the rear but due to there large size I doubt you could make them work on the front.

I bolted a piece of 1/2" plate between the frame rails and used generic hooks from the off-road shop.
