Adding Grab Handles?

[97Mounty97]

Has anyone added grab handles to there 97 mountaineer or explorer??
I was looking to put some on mine but I wasn't sure where I could mount them or how to even mount them. If anyone has pics of some they would be very helpful.

That one works. So what's you're question? I'd use nuts and bolts and add some kinda brace just to be safe
