Tow Hook Holes?

Were these holes standard on all 72 4x4 frames? This pic is of mine, but no hooks listed as an option.

Re: Tow Hook Holes?

What I have seen so far is that 72 4x4 frames are all drilled for hooks, but 71 and older 4x4 frames are only drilled if hooks were ordered.

Makes sense to what I have. 71 ton has them listed on the spid label but now gone. 72 has them (hooks still there) 71 4x4 frame, no holes. We also have a 71 4x4 that has them installed.
