Ok guys... Before i get all sorts of crap, i did search... Just couldn't find anything for the 1st gen guys...
I am going to a NIORA ride at Rausch Creek in Pa next saturday, but I don't have a front tow point.. With the front bumper being all plastic, what are you guys using (other than totally differant bumpers).
there was a guy last sunday that used a sky rope and hooked it to his frame rails on each side and made a loop and then hooked the tow strape to that. you could go get a tow hook out of a junk yard and there is a place to mount it to the passenger frame rail up front just under the body mount! thats about all the options i know of! good luck and watch the steering!
I've wondered about using those tabs that come down that look like they are perfect for mounting two hook to, but wasn't sure they where strong enough...
Curious what you come up with though, and looking forward to those spacers you're getting, oh and btw regarding those will you take them off whenever you put your muddies on or simply have your muddies sticking out 6"
You can go buy some stock tow hooks for the exterra or you can go pick up a set of Chevrolet or GMC full-size 4x4 (or Z71) from model years 1988-98 tow hooks. See link on all the info you need:
The Revos suck if they get wet, and they aren't that great on other terrain either. I used to wheel with Glen (Kaiser) in TX when he had those, they lost traction pretty easily and were almost worthless when it got muddy. Decent street tire though...
well if your useing the revos at rausch then you shouldnt have any problems. i was just worried about the 15x10s sticking out there so wide! you should be fine with the stock rims!
i just put those 10 dollar tow hooks you get at pep boys on the front and back of my truck, ill get some pics tomorrow in the light an put them here. i pull the hell out of them at least once a week and theyve held up great.
oh and if you do wind up tearing up you front bumper just let me know and ill bring my stock on to harlan and you can run around like a colts fan with a white and blue truck!
well i actually have two sets... lol... I found a set of steel wagon wheels like the white ones, but painted like a gun metal grey... I gave $25.00 for a set of 4... But then i found a set of mag style rims the same size that i REALLY liked, So i'm about $50.00 into those also...
But I'm supposed to have a guy comming to buy my 15x10's this week... then i'm down to which 15x8's i like more, and the other set will be for sale...
kinda late but thats what im running, ive pulled on both hooks more than i can count, frames a little bent on the rear but ive pulled out trucks on 40's with that one
i think this has been the first time on CF nobody said anything when someone posted pics!
