Does anyone have and decent photos of how/where the front tow hooks are bolted to a 1/2 ton frame?

Thanks!

71 blazer should be the same. I made a template that goes inside the frame rails.

It must only be on certain trucks, but my 71 K10 had the holes there already, so when I put a pair on I just bolted them right on. Someone must have robbed some off of it before I got it!

Those tow hooks are getting hard to find, not to mention expensive....
Who knows why..?

It will be funny when someone starts to repop these, and the originals won't be worth anything!

Burnout, people have been talking about repoping these since i started coming to this board. No one has been successful or wants the liability.

Good Call!!

You caught me!

The owner has the tow hooks but did not know how they attached. The truck had a winch on the front and the hooks were removed by a P.O.
