Most 2wd's don't, do you have the holes in the frame where they should be if so then they could be added

You could just get a hook like mine in the rear receiver hitch and pull things that way, usually get more power in forward then in reverse

I remember looking at some a while back in a catalog and they said not for any use at all but yours look like the ones off the 09's and are usable. They look really good
