Hey guys so my dad is a welder and i asked him to make me a Tow Hook and He told me to draw it out how i want it and get the Sizes. MY only Problem i dont know what size the tow hook is like where it go's into the car. To me it looks like a 18MM but not sure


Can someone help

 

if nobody happens to know off hand, just bring him the one that came with the car and im sure he can find out for sure.

 

^x2 prolly a good idea either way

 

That would be a good idea because im sure he could just look at it and tell me. But we do not live in the same City. I was just going to email or fax him all of my info. I asked some people on ebay that are selling them but people are dumb they dont even know what im talking about ha

 

my next suggestion would then be take your hook to a hardware store (ace, home depot, lowes, ect) and in the nuts and bolts section they usually have a thing set up to test and find out the thread and size of stuff you bring in.

 

You email random people off ebay but don't think to to email the companies that make a tow hook for the tC? And like it was said, take the bolts off and run to a hardware store.

 

Yeah thats a good idea i didnt think of that thanks ill take it down to Lowes or something. And i didnt email random people i sent a message on ebay to another seller that was selling tow hooks for tC.
And how am i going to find who makes that tow hook that is going to be impossible. Ill just go down to the hardware store.

Thanks for the ideas

 

I didn't say you emailed random people, I said you emailed random ebay sellers. And Password JDM makes a tow hook for the tC, email them. Several companies make tow hooks for the car, all easier then emailing vendors on ebay.

...i bet that dude knows.

 

is this about one of those annoying tow hooks that the Civics have? They look like po po magnets...spare yourself the work...cause when your gonna need it they will most likely break lol.....why not use the OEM hook?

 

why would it be a po po magnet? i didnt think they were illegal

 

I went to Home Deport and they didnt have anything that would fit. the biggest thing they had was a 16mm and that looked kinda small so im thinking its a 20mm or a 22mm. They guy at Home Deport said to ask AutoZone so i did and they could help me. Im not sure on what do it?

 

Goto an ACE hardware store, or any other hardware store. Home Depot/Lowes don't have the best selection of equipment for everything.

And side note on tow hooks for everyone, they'll rarely actually be used, and not at all if you've been racing.

 

Well I dont plan on using my TowHook I just think they look cool. I hope i dont ever have to use it because if i do that means something bad ha

 

mmm
