They will definitely be available for both left and right chassis rails. In fact, they will be sold as a pair. No information on pricing yet, but should definitely be cheaper than the 1 hook option from the dealer.

That's great news can't wait to see what you come up with the "hook" that the Kiwi's came up with is pure garbage not worth the effort - why was it so long and so poorly done?

I got a set made up by a fabricator friend:











He can easily make more if people want them.

We designed then so they fit inside the airdam so it makes no external appearance change. They use existing bolt holes, like the Jeep Australia ones, but are a pair.

Cheers

Interesting numbthumbs... That bolt closest to the hook look like a culprit to tighten?

Also do you think you will have problems with the hook facing inwards? and undoing itself when there's no tension on the pull?

How much is your mate charging if you don't mind me asking and will it include the bolts? I've never looked underneath, but are there existing threads for the holes or is it self threading.

So if these are that simple and symetrical why didn't Jeep offer one for both sides. I was under the impression the drivers side frame was different and hence why they couldn't do one for that side. Seeing them up close they could not be simplier and a shackle loop one even easier.
