so i have a 1999 f250 v10 XLT SuperDuty and it does not have the front bumper tow hooks. i have been trying to find out what kind they are so that i can buy some for my truck but im not having much luck.
The only thing iv found out is that maybe they are O.E.M hooks but i really dont know..

Maybe yall can help me find out what kind of tow hooks to look for and maybe where i can find some.

Dont really have any have any pictures of the front bumper and hot it would bolt to the frame but if i need to ill add some pictures up later, just let me know if i need to add some.

Thanks

 

Dealer. Bolts go thru the frame and the tow hooks are threaded for the bolts.

 

I read this post last night, and it made my brain hurt. I couldn't understand what he was asking. Like Za said, the OEM tow hooks are the only ones I have ever seen. Get them on ebay or anywhere that sells Ford parts.

You can buy these...

Tow Hooks

 

see most the super duty trucks have these 2 bolts on the end of the frame which your bumper bolts onto, this is what most of the front bumper tow hooks LOOK like they are bolted to and so i wonted to find some that would fit and work to bolt to the 2 bolts already there, that way i dont have to drill new holes in the frame.

 

They all have three threaded holeson the end of the frame spar.

 

So would something like this fit?

No. Those are cleary listed as 08, 09, 10. Since your truck is a 99, you need to buy the ones that are for 99-04...like the ones I posted before.

 

Oh ok, so would they still fit even tho it says excursion and i have a f250 truck? and will i need to drill extra holes in the frame or are they some already there?

 

The 99-04 Excurion and Super Duty are the same. They use the same tow hooks.

 

aaah ok

so by chance does any place like adv auto parts or walmart or some kind of local store sell some of these? cause being only 17, its not easy for me to order online... alot easier for me to go drive and pick some up

 

You can get them at a local junkyard or pull-a-part.

 

If you plan on getting real stuck and giving them a workout, find an earlier vintage Superduty in a boneyard with forged tow hooks. I know for sure that the '03s were welded so you would probably want to be looking around '99-'01?

 

yeah thats why iv had some people tell me to go look at, probable will try and do that.

And no i dont plan on getting it real stuck due to the fact that its 2wd lol. and yes i know 2wd is for the road only but when we 1st got the truck it was sitting in this yard on this side of the road at this selling place and it will just like idk, grass and dirt. It had been raining and with it just parked on the slightest incline, it just spun tires and was stuck.. and the road slick wigger tires dont help the point hahaa!
Pluse some chrome hooks on the front will help AND look great

 

My '02 has welded hoops, but plenty beefy still and I've tugged more than I should no problems.

oooooh ok, i saw how some of the tow hooks on a older ford is done.. not i see that it can be sat in the middle of the frame and bolted to the bottom of the frame... Are there already 3 holes there or would i have to drill some?
oh and it looked like there was maybe some kind of box on the inside of he frame.. i wouldn't need anything like that right?
