Default FX4 Tow hooks on 4x2?

I was checking out some FX4 Level ll Ranger's and noticed they have dual front tow hooks. I personally really like the look and the toughness. My question is can I get these for my 2010 Ranger 4x2? Are they welded? Any help would be great thank you!





Im talking about the ones between the front license plate BTW.

Yes they would fit.

You should have the holes already to bolt them on.

I would try and find them elsewhere, the dealer will cost a ton! You can check the cross frame on the front of your truck to see if you have the holes for them. There should be 2-3 holes for each hook i believe.

mine arent chrome, they are stainless, but they look soooooo much better than black ones:

Just make a WTB ad, im sure someone has some laying around somewhere. I switched mine from the black to stainless (so glad I did) and it was a biotch getting them bolts out, so at least you dont have to do that! If you are auto, it make it a lttle difficult because of the trans cooler too:







If im not mistaken myke, i dont think has the top bolst in the crossmember. I could be wrong though.

Most the newer trucks if you have T-bar front suspension you have the cross member to do it but you dont have the holes just need to get the hooks then make the holes and drill them no big deal.

if you are coil sprung front you dont have the cross member for it. if you want the expansive ass hooks you want these LOL...

Im thinking of shopping around and trying to find used ones from a junk yard or something...there is only 1 local junk yard around me though... Something to think about, im still waiting to check for the holes, i was lurking a 4x4 and saw the hooks and was looking at where they line up so i know where to look!
