I have two tow hooks on the front of my Dak. I originally bought and mounted
the small 'Jeep' style hooks, and found out they suck. They are just too
short and the a tucked up/into the frame too much. Remember also, I dont
have the lower air dam on my truck, cause it would just get torn off; or
should I say it gets torn off whenever I went 4wheelin. Plus by removing the
lower air dam you can get a slightly better approach angle. Check out this

I originally took a pair of tow hooks off of a 1985 4WD Blazer, at a junk
yard for $5. I then also took a pair of hooks off of a 1995 Chevy 2500 4WD
pickup, and ended up using these with Grade 8 mounting hardware. The large
tow ring is what I use for rear recovery on my Reese Class IV hitch.
