    HOW TO: Replace factory front tow hooks with dual hitch or D-rings

    I'd suggest locking hitch pins if you're going to keep the D-rings on at all times. I picked up two of these yesterday. They're now painted all black of course :smokin:

    Just need to replace the transfer case position sensor. There's a few threads on it in the how to section. Quick 10 minute job from underneath the Jeep with a 1-1/2" socket.

    Sweet looking KJ man. Does the tire carrier swing out to allow the rear door/window to open? Mind posting some pictures with the rear door open?

    Replace stock front tow hooks with D-Rings?

    Shackles are on: Pretty simple mod. I like the d-rings a lot better than the stock tow hooks. Much more functional too. If anyone is interested in doing this mod, my How-to is here.
