Ok, so I have two front tow hooks, and the 8 inch clearance. However, at the rear I dont have dedicated tow hooks. I have the tow hitch, which has two holes in it which look like they are designed to take a shackle or similar. What would you suggest?

thanks

Hi @nr51mes the 2 holes you see on the hitch receiver are not for towing or recoveries. You would need to get something like in the image below that can be connected to the hitch receiver. I have seen these available at ACE. Also when buying, check that it is rated for the weight of the vehicle it is being used on.
