| Post subject: | Vitara rear tow hook |
I recently removed one of my rear tow hooks (regular kind from Supercheap) off my troopy, hoping to fit it to the rear of my 93 Vitara. There's 2 threaded holes in the Vitara chassis, but they're about double the spacing between them than the towhook from the troopy. Any idea where to get a towhook to suit, or is it easier to have one manufactured? |

they are the towbar mounts and to fit anything to it you would have to fabricate it having said that, I dont know if 1 side would be strong enough, I would be inclined to have a thick plate on teh other side to help spread the load and stop the chassis rail tearing |

I reckon most people would use a towbar, not perfect but normally ok to get pulled from (generally avoid recovering anyone heavier than you) also helps to protect the tank a bit |
