Rear Tow Hooks on Blazers and Jimmys - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I've seen rear tow hooks come up for sale on the forum from time that are configured like a coat hook: the hook is 90 degrees perpendicular to the base. I'm used to seeing the typical ones that are bolted through the frame (as seen in the scan from an old Motor Trend article) so that they hang down (as in the picture) or not when not in use.

I've attached a scan of that picture and of a few of the typical rear hooks that have been for sale on this forum for comparison purposes. Can the typical ones be used on 1st gen Blazers and Jimmys without a substantial modification, or were rear ones made like the fronts?
