Another Tow-Hook Question

Which way (originally) do the tips turn when mounted up,in towards center or outward?I`ve never paid attention on the trucks I`ve had that they came on.I`m thinking inward.

I believe they point inward, but may be wrong on that- sorry I couldn't give a more definative answer.

Re: Another Tow-Hook Question

There was quite th thread a while back, pictures and all,on this subject. Perhaps if you search??? I seem to remember the " Ramshorn" style they call them curled under the frame horns and came out on the inside of frame rails and they were bolted on the outside of rails. I think??? Search it!

Re: Another Tow-Hook Question

67-68 style and 69-72 style point inward, the other 72 style point the same way.
