Is the front bumper tow hook actually used with any other accessories?
I removed mine and found the 5 bolts that hold it on are a bit of an odd size, 12x1.5mm. They got a little rusty so the threads on the bolt were chewed up, so I ordered new stainless replacement flange bolts and a 12x1.5 tap to chase the holes.
I don't see any reason to keep the bumper, plate, hook combo so I thought I might replace it with a 2 inch square tube Reese hitch plate.
I could put my Reese winch on there, build a little bumper bar for it, put a 2-5/16 ball hitch and move a trailer , stuff like that, actually make it useful.
