anyone know where i can get tow hooks to install on my Z? i dont want to use the stock Z hole (my new front bumper covers it) and i'd like to probably get one to go thru the bumper (ala racing style!heh)

i found some universal ones for honda, just they looked like a$$... anyone know where i can just get 'blanks' ?

thanks

cheston

 

I remember Omega1 had some on his Z...

AC TechNik Tow hooks

I just want to let you know that i searched for a good 10-12 minutes only b/c you have a Top Secret Rear Diffuser.

 

i <3 u.

 

I wonder how hard they would be to fabricate? Can't be that hard as long as you have a solid mounting point. After that, it's just a little trimming of your bumper.

Someone should look into fabricating one. I have very limited resources where I am at, so I'm not of much help.

 

hmm.. need to look at SCCA/NASA rulebook i guess on tow hooks..?

yea. doesnt seem too hard to make.. i was thinking of mounting it in the front next to the crash bar. with the four holes that go into the frame.




Would anyone be interested if i got something made up?

 

Not sure what you're looking to accomplish, but the folding tow hook that I have here (in the stock location) is nice.

a fabrication shop could easily make what you are looking for and it shouldn't break the bank.

Then just powder coat it what ever color you like.

make the template yourself and take it to them.

 

the best tow hooks i've seen are available from Phoenix which is a GM prep shop located in Pennsylvania. Call Kurt at 215.679.2232, tell him Bob Hines recommended you.

 

any update Cheston?

 

yeah...i want one too.

my kenstyle front bumper covers my OEM tow hook as well.

thought about heating the OEM tow hook and bending it so that it sneaks out enough to be usable, but haven't had the time to look into it much.

so yeah, i'd be interested if you could come up with something, either using the OEM location or a new location.

 

everyone in club bob needs one, make them, pink is preferred

 

I made some for Spec Miata cars. Send me a drawing with dimensions and I can make it.

 

Cheston, what about that new one that Brian/Volk350Z had on his car in the "Cars at Performance Nissan" thread......I remember him saying Andy would have it on their website by that week but I couldn't find it yet.

I think it's what your looking for..

 

Hey homies,

Look up the search string "350z tow hook" on ebay. There are a few there. Make sure you get the one with the proper drill size.

His new bumper covers the hole... Hence the ebay hook wont work unless he lowers the hole or relocates...

 

i will probably end up fabbing some to go thru the front and rear bumpers.. sigh... stupid nose. stupid diffuser. @#%

 

my problem is I have the 22mm hitch, hard to find one to fit
