I used tow hooks from a 93-99 chevy truck or tahoe. The hokes are almost dead on. I needed to make one of the holes on the frame a little bigger, but not terribly bad considering they are 35 years apart.

Re: tow hook idea

HA! What can I say... it was a good tow hook pic and I saved it for future use. Hope he doesn't mind.

I'm sure he'll be happy to see it. Looks like he needs an air compressor though! Sharpie
