I just doubled my truck value

I'm off work all week so I thought I would stick these on. Took about 5 minutes a side. Now I'm wondering if I should call ALLSTATE in the morning and get the theft valus raised to $500. HAHA. Wes.

Better be careful and cover up those hooks. Someone will want to steal your truck.

At the prices those go for, I would weld them on my frame...or at least weld the nut to the bolt!

Aren't those hooks mounted backwards??? I think the opening should be facing the rear of the truck?

You don't even need the hooks.....you've got bumper guards to hook up to!

Hooks value depend on year style. Tacks...$200 is reasonable.

Yup, two right hand hooks. The tips should point to the fenders.
