Here are a few of mine. Nothing fancy. Just some receivers welded to the frame rails. 2inch 1/4 inch wall square tubing, and a 1/2 inch plate across for the weights to hang on. I also added some tabs so you can stick a rod through all of the weights too keep them from coming off. I had been using a ratchet strap but this is much quicker and easier.

Thanks Chaz for posting the pics. The only pic I have of it finished up (painted) is this one. Thought the weights I had would be enough, but have to add a few more on it now.

Now, just need to work on the traction bar pics for the other thread.

I was wondering the same thing, looks like the receivers were welded to the inside of the frame since the tow hooks I'm pretty sure run right beneath the frame.

Speaking of tow hooks, anyone not need/want theirs?
