Default Tow Hooks

Can anyone suggest a seller of correct tow hook(s) for my 2001 XKR?

Silver Shark, there are 2 available on ebay right now, or check for a complete jack kit with tow hooks in kit, plenty on ebay. If buying tow hooks separately, be sure to verify thread pitch. Best of luck.

Cheers, BK

Thanks - I'll check the thread pitch. One reader says the two on eBay are not for X models.

Bob,

I've added your photo to the post #4. There was a forum update a few hours ago which should have resolved the photo attachment issue.

As far as I know eye bolts (right name) are not for towing, they are for loading on towing truck. Mine (I think) has thread 20mm X 2,5 mm, I used 3/4" x 10 from hardware store, which worked fine. If you use wrong thread, like I did, put some kind of choke behind rear wheels while loading and move them every 1' or so.
