Does any bumper allow you to use the factory orange tow hooks on it?

I know the rubicon moose bumper does but I’m looking for aluminum as I don’t want weight to be an issue.


I’ve been reading countless bumper threads and I can’t find this topic.

Thanks!

Just bumping this thread to see if anyone has found any bumpers that can retain the orange hooks + fog lights. Thanks

Most bumpers replace the hooks for closed loops because they're mostly useless and fully unsafe in most recovery situations. Good luck in your search but aside from the ones that try to mimic the stock appearance, I think you might struggle to find many options since welding recovery points onto the bumper is easy and better in every way. Retaining hooks complicates things.

I don’t think there useless or over dangerous, they are convenient and strong.
I think I’ve them like a highlift Jack, need to know how and when to use them

I just watched a member use them last week to pull another member out who got stuck in the mud. They worked perfectly fine.

Thanks. I went and bought it from rugged ridge. Ordered a 12.5 wench from them too. I sure hope it works without any modifications or trimming of the skid plate. Thank you !
