Weld. a bead of weld i wouldn't just start drilling holes in the frame. that's a good spot for rust to take hold. Do you have the hooks already?

In the 09 and down the 2500s have the d ring with a bar that goes halfway into the ring so you can put a strap on it instead of tying the stupid f*cker on there everytime.
