I thought there were stock mounts for those on the more recent XJ's. Mine's a '90 so I'm no help there. Custom 4x4 makes a bracket that should work if you don't have anything stock:

There are others out there though, do a search of the forum, I'm sure it's been discussed before.

I have the stock bumper and tow hook bracket WITH 2 tow hooks for sale. Mine are off a 95. If you want, I can take a picture of it and send it to your email to see if they will work (I can't post them here).

hey guys,

. . . also, could i fit 33x10.5's with a 3 inch lift. or would that be cutting it close. . . Unless you are willing to trim your fenders, no amount of lift (well I guess 10" or so would work) will let you run 33's without rubbing. The stock XJ's fender line is too small for 33's.
