we have this being duplicated now and wonder how much interest there is. Molding is quite expensive on this part so we would have to sell for 35 bucks but it would be an exact zinc plate duplicate
Any interest? |

and they break if you pull any angle other than straigfht on.....poor design The issue is the threaded bolt is way too small. Look at a 996 928 tow hook and it's way more substantial RD20mm knuckle thread that is basically a metric version of an Acme thread. Real odd ball thread RD20X1/8" Knuckle thread DIN 405 https://www.gewinde-normen.de/en/knuckle-thread-din-405.html To me it's nice to have in your original kit, but as a tow hook it's pretty well worthless. |
