Was giving a set of chrome tow hooks yesterday and my original plan was to powder coat them black and install on the tow package. Now I'm thinking of removing the hooks off the front of my truck, installing those in the rear and having the chrome hooks powder coated silver to match my truck. I recently had my light bar coated silver and I think it looks great. Thoughts on the tow hooks also being PTM?

Do it, PTM, or you know I could take your black ones off you, and put them on the rear of my truck. LOL

 

I've never seen them in the rear. Does anybody make aftermarket hooks? I didn't find much on Amazon.

 

Why not leave them chrome? It's a lot more durable than any paint/powder coat could ever hope to be.

I like chrome so I may be biased.

A lot of guys take factory tow hooks and use U-Bolts to attach them to the tow package. The Raptor has them welded to the hitch.

Square U-Bolts and here's some pictures for the poster who was curious.

 

Is that 09-14 F150 Hooks?

I believe they are from quite a few different years. I thought they were the same from 04 - 14 plus the Expeditions. Maybe I'm wrong, can't remember exactly.

 

Chrome matches our bumpers

 

I have basically zero chrome on the truck so chrome hooks isn't something I want to do.

They looks good with chrome bumpers but mine are painted.
