ZJ Grand Cherokee Tow Points and Radiator Support

(If you have questions or a comment… post it below, and we’ll answer you ASAP!)

  Are you missing factory tow hooks or looking to free up some ground clearance and approach angle?  Have you hit your cheap factory radiator support one too many times and dented it?  How does two additional inches of ground clearance under the radiator sound to you?  I’ve designed a replacement radiator support that tucks up out of harm’s way and will allow trimming of the front bumper to gain back massive amounts of approach angle (typically 10°~15°) and keeps your radiator from getting damaged at the same time!  Most importantly, the kit also includes snatch points, which alone would cost you around $100 + shipping if your Jeep didn’t come with the UpCountry Package from the factory. There are other aftermarket tow hook manufacturers selling factory-style tow points for $100 that are not NEAR as strong as our 1/4″ thick redundant bracing (pulls off both frame rails at the same time, rather than putting all the forces on one hook separately).  To the best of my knowledge, this is the beefiest ZJ tow point (and ONLY fortified radiator support) on the market.

After installing this item under your ZJ, another huge benefit is that now you’ll also be able to avoid off-axle pulls, which sometimes results in this sort of nonsense. Have a look at this poor sap who decided NOT to purchase tow points for his XJ Cherokee…

“Here’s a posting on our forum that I put up last night mentioning the incident I spoke to you on the phone about and how your radiator support saved the front of my ZJ.   Some one posted a few pics of the ordeal. Maybe you can post these on your site. I’ll try to get a close up of the mount. It’s not even scratched.” -John R., Worcester, MA

This kit includes hardware and everything you need to add 5/8″ shackles (3/4″ pin) to the front of your Jeep. It’s about a 1-2 hour job, comes with all the (Grade 8) hardware you need and requires a 15mm socket with extension.  On a difficulty scale from 1-10, this is a 3.  Trimming the lower portion of the bumper is not required in order to use the snatch points, but you will have to notch the bumper out so that you can GET to the shackles.  Stock fog lights on the ’96+ models can be retained in the bumper if you desire.  Ships out the next business day if I have them in stock, which I normally do. Protect your radiator, free up some ground clearance, and add snatch points today, before you need them!!  Product varies visually slightly from photos due to update in strength.  It’s a little more low profile now as well.
