Got tired of not having front tow points. I've never gotten stuck I don't take this truck mud ridding I just like to be prepared. Hooks are off a 1999 Ford Expedition and fit pretty well. One hole lines up with a hole already in the frame and the other lines up with one of the bolts for my swaybar so I'll replace it with a grade 8 before I use them.

Also does that lower spring mount look off to anyone else?
Found another leak, and I need to go through the front end soon.

Great idea On the front tow hooks. I think I'll be doing that to mine sometime soon.

Thanks man! Yeah my plans for it have changed since the beginning but I've got a picture in my head of what it'll look like when I'm done, just takes time.

I love them. Closest thing I could find to the old Remington Mud Brutes.

Since nobody saw your question on the window Tint, It should look good IMO. What about windshield 50% two fronts legal 35% then-%20 in the rears? 20 is pretty dark for seeing at nighttime though. Not impossible but ive been in a situation my suburban and trailer almost took out a small car turning left tan
Dem with me in the inner lane. Didn't relise that it was a two lane left turn. I almost removed my tint because that was a close call.

I don't know if you can tint the windshield here. My uncle owns a shop that does tint so sometime soon I'm going to head over there and see if there's anything I can compare to.
