Well I did my research on front tow hooks vs. front hitch, and decided on the front hitch. This website was great... http://www.hrja.org/towpoints.htm , does anyone have more pics of an XJ with a front hitch? Also which company makes the one that tucks up nicely, and dosent hang way down?
And the other thing... I want a winch because I have a tendancy to get stuck (go figure). But I dont want to spend the money for a nice front bumper, and I'm trying to keep the Jeep as stock looking as possile (dont want it to look like a trail rig when its time to sell it). I have access to a machine shop/ welders at work and saw once a thing that pluged into the front hitch, and stuck out and had a big flat plate to mount a winch to. Has anyone made something similar or have any advice on making this? What are the pro's and cons? I've never wired a winch up but is there a way to make it a quick disconnect?
Can anyone hook me up with a link to a pre-made winch hitch adapter. Thanks
