Hey everyone. I bought a set of like new OEM tow hooks on eBay but they do not include the bolts. What type and size bolts are needed to secure them to the frame on my '07 and where can I find them other than the dealership? Or is there a high-grade generic replacement? Thanks

Here are the bolts you'll need, be sure to order 2 each. They're not sold in pairs.

Ok I think I see the three holes but what happens with the nut on the long bolt through the impact bumper? Does that go away with the hook replacing the nut? Does only the plastic cover have to come off to get to the bolts or does the whole steel bumper have to come off to get the hooks on? Does the smaller bolt get threaded in from the top pointing down? Thanks

It's been a while since I added tow hooks to my truck, but I remember only the plastic bumper cover needed to be removed. Then the hooks bolted right up. I didn't have the same questions you did, I just used the hardware my friend gave me with the hooks, bolted them on, and put the bumper cover back on. Easy peasy.
