i have a Manik brush guard on my X. i want some tow hooks on the truck and i need to know how to put them on or any sugestion of other holes to put the hooks. if i can't find any i might have to sell them. it doesn't matter where they go, front or back i just need some holes. pics needed as well

right below at the middle between the fog lights, there are 2 flat steel rods that sticks out to hold the bottom of the brushguard, that is where i put mine. gimme your email address and i will sent u the pictures. dont know how to post it here
 












send me some pics guys.
 






I should have pix of how mine are mounted in the next day or two. I have a Smittybilt Outland guard and I have my tow hooks mounted on the outside edges of the guard where the frame drop brackets bolt to the guard. I then strengthened the mount point by bolting in two 18" long x 2" wide x 3/8" thick steel bars from the frame down to the hooks on a 45° angle from the frame.
 






Can you email those pics to me when you take them JDraper? My email is pholcomb@tamu.edu

Thanks
