Default Receiver Tow Hook

Hi,

I removed the rear tow hook that came with my jeep and installed a receiver hitch for bike & ski rack mounting ... that works great but now I don't have a tow hook in the rear anyplace.

Any thoughts on using a Receiver Tow Hook (fits into the hitch like this http://www.quadratec.com/products/92121_50.htm )? Or would I be better off mounting one on the frame on the left or right side (I saw a JK in the parking lot the other day with that set up)?

Thanks!

If your not going to wheel it much just get a $2.00 locking pin. You can stuff a tow strap in the receiver and place the lock pin through it. Make sure to use the pin lock on the outer side of the receiver.
