Funny, I was sitting in my shop chair enjoying a beer after a project and noticed no tow hooks on the front of my new used 2022 Laramie. I couldn't imagine a 4WD without factory hooks up front and figured they must be hiding behind those panels in the bumper. After crawling under and routing my arm in unhuman form to feel in that space.. nothing! So after watching your vid, I used your link and ordered the same aftermarket parts. Thanks for your help!

I just added the hooks to my ‘23 Ram Hemi Big Horn. 18mm on the bolts, 8mm on the 5 wheel well screws, a small 9/32 wrench on the bezel trim nuts. Do not unscrew the nut all of the way, just loosen and slide out and then use a flat tool on the front of the bumper and pry the bezel out. The long 9” bolt, I used a large pipe wrench and rested on the shaft of the bolt and tapped down on the pipe wrench with a hammer to dislodge the bolt retaining clip. My hooks had a solid washer embedded in the rubber grommets so I had to remove the retaining clip on the 18mm bolt to install. Awesome video! 👏👏👏 #ram1500

Your video was great you really made installation of the tow hooks a cinch. Only thing I did different was removing the front panels. After removing the 2 screws I used a butter knife from the front and they popped out. If you’re worried about scratching the chrome on the bumper just place a towel between the bumper and butter knife.

Agree, the panels gave me hell on installing the screws. I had no issues in taking out-used a trim tool. One hack I used was don't remove the long bolt all the way. Just enough to wrap the big rubber grommet around it then slide the tow hook on it. (My grommets came already pre-cut.) This worked great so no need to hammer out the bolt.

Don’t know how you did that. I tried and tried. Little space to maneuver. Had the front bolt in the way wouldn’t slide forward to force the grommet and bolt into the back of the hook. Tried removing the front bolt. Very awkward. Hell with it . Took 5 secs to pound the bolt out. After I did all that, if I had lifted my truck, your method would have worked easy.

technically, you wouldn’t have to take those bolts. They’re in the truck out the rubber piece that I got that goes in there has been cut so that you can get the rubber piece around the bolts and then just stick them inside and get the rubber pieces mounted onto your toe hooks without ripping out that big screw.
