2004 Prado - Tow Hook Locations?

Post by **wannaberacer** » Mon Jan 31, 2005 1:50 pm

Have a friend who has a 2004 T/D Prado with neither a bullbar or nudgebar.

We're looking at putting some tow hooks on the front but can't see any obvious places to bolt the hooks onto. There is only 1 bolt hole on each side underneath.

Has anyone done this before? Do I need to fabricate something to take a 2 bolt tow hook perhaps?

Cheers

See the bolt on people, they will have whatever it is or,

find a nice striaght clean peice of chassis bolt plate on either side and include your tow hook in equation. I have a FJ40 so I just weld stuff but I am sure tha tyou don't wanna do that, yet.

Thanks....but easier said than done when there is lots of plastic from the bumper in the way of trying to do anything.

Talk to the bolt on bandit leaders. TJM ARB, They would have come up with a solution for this, don't think that they would be THAT expensive for a couple of recovery points. Be neat and tidy too.

Yeah we went to Opposite Lock (not sure if they qualify as the Bolt on Bandits) and he couldn't see any easy way to do it. Gave us a quote for $250 to fabricate something up to bolt the hooks to. Might try ARB and see what they say.
