Tow Hooks

[Old man with MJ]

Will Mopar Jeep Cherokee tow hooks fit a Comanche;didn't know if the front of frame is the same?

They fit, everything from the cab forward is the same between XJ and MJ. The differences start at the back of the cab, and specific things like cross member location on the floors and seat brackets.

 

Several companies make some brackets for the XJ/MJ that you can use D-rings instead of tow hooks as well.

Thanks for the reply,these are Mopar,do they bolt right on,without any drilling?

[GirsMJ86]

They should. I can't say for sure exactly where, but I'd guess they use the same holes as the bumper mounts like the after market ones. You'll have to do away with the air dam below the bumper or modify it.

Goes further back will need to probly drill one hole

I got the ones for my MJ off an XJ in the junkyard with all the factory brackets...bolted right up!!  Even had the factory torx bolts/

 

$25

Nope, that last hole is already there on both sides.

Nice

I went and got 6 bolts, M10-1.5*45mm because the OEM bolts were too short. Agree bolts right on to the factory hole pattern. Not sure why exactly but I notched my air dam so i could turn the hook up. Check your sway bar for clearance as the bolts stick out further. It's a nice add on for the factory bumper.

Thanks for all your replies, don't know if I will buy these for $75!

[Bornindesert]

Just a consideration, but the brackets are substantial in terms of steel, fabrication and machining. The hooks are forged. I got some hardware when I picked mine up, specifically the bolts that attach the hooks. In terms of value and the fact that you can really hook up and get pulled out of a tough spot without having to worry about the location of the pull...kinda worth $75. I don't think it's a smoking deal, but definitely a good deal.

Same price as the Rusty's kit. I'd rather grab the Mopar ones if I could for the same price like that.
