Looking for stock tow hooks for rear bumper

[OrangeCrush]

I'm toying with the idea of removing my rear tire spare tire so I'm looking for a set of stock tow hooks.

If ya got some, let me know...

Here's what it will look like. I just took the carrier off and re-installed the bolts. I used a front rec. plate holder from Tomkin and just bolted a plate light to it and threw it in the receiver. I wanted to be able to drive with the tailgate down to get stuff, plus I liked the clean looks of it.

I sent the guy an email. That's cheap considering I called the stealership parts dept this morning and they wanted 125 for a rear set of "take-offs".

Are they FUKKING crazy?

Morons....

[Bimmer9938]

I made a deal with the guy who bought my carrier, so mine were thrown in for free.

Alot of Limo/Coach companies buy these carriers for Limo builds to get the spare out of the cargo area.


I named my plate light bracket the "Jonzo-Mod" for all those wondering.

Is there a way to search on Craig's List, without logging into every single city, to do a national search?

Man, I can't THANK YOU enough for taking the time to search Craigslist for me there. There is no way I could have randomly found that.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.... very cool. I paid the guy 25 bucks plus 10 shipping.

FANTASTIC deal.

NO and I don't know why... I mean, at least let you search by state.... it's ludicrist to think I'd search city by city.... that's the only thing I hate about Craigslist.

PS: Jon, got your new wheels and tires mounted on the truck today. Insurance company came by and okay'd a new hood and grille. I'll call you in a while.

[Bimmer9938]

Someone once found me hood handles on Craig's too. They were cheap cheap aswell. I didn't like the black ones after installing them, so I just resold em. But yea, ones mans junk parts..are another ones treasure!
