Thanks!

I had a surprise today! Found it on the front porch at lunch time. Installed it after work today. The install went fast. Had to drill out the holes in the frame rail ends, because the supplied bolts were just a teeny bit bigger than the stock holes. Then shot a little POR-15 spray in there and let it dry a few minutes.

The tow hook looks sturdy but it's behind the grill, I had assumed it would be accessible from the outside/front. That's what I get for assuming.

I can probably put a short cable on it and let the cable poke through the grill.

Fits great, looks good, and seems plenty sturdy.
