Yes the are hooked off to one side... both styles are. The angle of the view in the ebay pic auction right now makes them look too bent in my opinion. but who knows.. thats a lot of metal to bend... could be done though. They are pretty thick.

there are two styles of 69-72 hooks. the ones on ebay both point toward the passenger side of the truck and have an almost 90 degree bend on the tips. the other type have much less bend on the tips and point either at each other or away from each other depending on which way they are mounted. i run the larger bend hooks on my trucks but they seem to be harder to find than the other style. if anyone wants the ones on ebay they're gonna cost you, lol.
