TADA! get one of these and you should be able to loop it around the tow hook and strap very easily. screw in the pin all the way then back off 1/4 turn (so after you yank on it you can still undo it) and yank away!

What size bolts do you have? And 01 f150 i pull/get pulled out to many times to be dickin with a screw in d ring. the ones on the cummins are so easy to hook up and tons quicker. and dodge aren't pos they have the best diesel engine there is and one of the strongest trannys and rear ends. if you work with your rig dodge is the only way to go!
