My new to me '16 1500 Laramie has blanks where I expect tow hooks to reside. They are nice blanks, but I don't suspect they are hiding tow hooks behind them. Am I wrong? I plan to put the truck out on the beach soon, so I want to be prepared for the eventual drag out. I'm looking at installing a front receiver for the promised fishing rig and if the tow hooks don't exist, I just need to make sure the front receiver I install will have some hook locations.

Tow hooks do not reside behind the blanks - only the mounting points do. Tow hooks can be added but they are not cheap and at one point ( maybe not now ) hard to come by new.

Congrats on the 16' Laramie - same truck here but different color. :)

There are towing hooks back there, as well as a 12K winch and if you look even further back there's a lift kit and 40" tires.

It's all there behind those little plastic pieces. Just crawl under there and keep looking you'll find them.

Its all hidden in your wallet.

You could score used hooks. What's scary is there some chinese knockoffs.
Pretty simple bolt ons. Some people buy new plastic trim some just cut the plastic.

Yeah, I found the winch and the lift kit, just no hooks! :gr_guns: So that's the way it is here, huh... ;)

I have a 18. And I still have three recking yards looking for a set. They still want over $100
