i have the two rubber pushbars on the front of my crome bumper. I like them and i dont want to cut the bumper up. Any way to mount the hooks behind the bumper as a kind of hidden towpoint, maybe facing down? Or is it just i need to choose between the pushbars or cutting the bumper? Im looking for options for a front towpoint without getting rid of the pushbars, dont think shackles will look good with a crome bumper anyway
 
Could you put the shackle tubes on the inside of the frame rails inside of out? Might scoot 'em out of the way of the bumperettes.

Though I think you'd have to extend them forward to *clear* the bumperettes... and yeah, it's an aesthetic wreck =))

so i guess its one or the other huh?

get yourself a front hitch. itll be right in the middle. and ive used mine tons of times without any problem.

and it shouldnt get in the way of your little pushers. i used to have those on my first truck and liked them too.

or if you want to be really cheep you can get one of those hooks that just point downward. but those suck, ive broke one and also if you try backing up a hill or something they like to grab tree branches and roots
