not shure where would be a good place to mount these got 10000 pound hooks want to mount them on the fromt of my grand cherokee but theres not really anywhere to put them any help would be great thanks

You need mounting plates that bolt onto the frame rails. Do not mount them without brackets, you'll have them ripped out and go flying.

any offroad store should sell the brackets you need. i think modern has them in stock. i got some (complete with hooks) from the auto wrecker a few years ago.....
just an FYI you cannot mount tow hooks to a ZJ cheap..... if you just drill two holes and bolt in teh tow hook it WILL rip out. the factory stock tow points are a bracket in a kind of 'L" with a big bolt plate that bolts into teh side of the 'framerail' and is sandwiched by another bolt plate on teh other side, and there is an extension which bolts into the radiator support

they go on you rad support so go to pnp and grab one that you can use for hooks or get and aftermarket one that pushes the rad up
