sorry but tow hooks will be a requirement for this run. in all my years of wheeling, i have seen jeeps get stuck and break on the easiest of dirt roads and if the need arises, i need to make sure that there is a way to assist you safely and without doing any additional harm to your jeep. likewise, they are needed in the event that you can help a fellow jeeper as well.

if you are in need of hooks, you do have enough time to get them and if need be, i might be able to help you out.

I have both front and rear stock tow hooks-they are yours if you are going to be in San Diego anytime

Why, can you not get tow hooks in time. A lot of people have extra ones lying around the garage. Do you have a hitch receiver in the back? That would probably be good enough for the rear. A lot of us have receiver hooks we could swap in there if you get stuck.
