Uuuhhhhhhmmmmmmm (clearing throat)... I knew I was gonna' be in trouble
when I slighted Ma MOPAR with my price concerns... Forgive me DML for I
have sinned ;-)
I had no idea what was included with the hooks until I checked out Joel's
web page. Thanks Joel for showing me the light and thanks to Rob and John
for showing me the error of my ways :-)
Now that I know what is included, $160 ain't so bad...
Can I Get an AMEN! :-)
T.
P.S. For those that have strayed, Joel's web page is recreated below (Cool
page, BTW!).

You are getting allot more for your money than just two hooks with the bolts
to attach them. There is also a complete set of brackets that come with the
hooks that spread the load to the frame. Yes $160.00 is a lot of money, but
what would it cost to have you hire a tow truck to go into the backwoods to
pull you out if some inferior hook broke or damaged your frame when you
tried to use them?
BTW, that 4500 lb rating is continuous, not peak like most others rate their
hooks. This means you can hang your truck by the hooks!

98 Dak............. finally home

Can anyone recommend some decent and reasonably priced after-market tow
hooks for a '98 4x4?? MOPAR wants $160 for a forged pair that are rated at
4,500 lbs ea... I think/hope that's a ridiculous price.
