Body Lift And Tow Hooks

Hey guys I just ordered a Body lift...too cheap to buy a suspension....anyways, for those who have body lifts on 4x4's what did you do with your tow hooks? and can you move them to the top of the frame rail to support the look?! Picts would be great!!

your options are to either remove them entirely, or trim the valance so they will fit when the bumper is raised.

i wouldn't go about relocating the tow hooks, they're put in that location on the frame for a reason.

Use GM style tow hooks (ask wandell for more info if needed or pics).

Basically the older style GM hooks will fit and look great - all you need to do is trim the frame horns back until about an inch or so away from the mounting holes.

I purchased a set (well, two actually) of tow hooks off ebay. Expect to pay $25-$35. Within the next month I'll be doing this but as far as a mock up is concerned, I can already tell that it'll look 100x better. If you need a set pm me and we can probably work something out
