I tried to install tow hooks on my ppv and had an issue. I remove the push bar off my rig and the tow hooks dont fit. They dont slide into the frame like the rails from the push bar did. I thought maybe the frame was bent, but this is on both sides. Has anybody else had this issue?

Yes i had that problem the bumper bracket were c Chanel so when they bolted it in it bent it in a little bit. So just take a baby bfh and open up the opening then tap it in the rest of the way

there you go Cherokee try using a crow bar and open the channel a bit then tap it in with a rubber mallet so you don't damage the powder coat.

Interesting information.

Mine didn't have a push bar, just the tow hooks.

I mine pull them off and paint them since I'm working from home
