Curt 45500 Forged Tow Hook Trailer Hitch Ball Mount, Fits 2-Inch Receiver

Awesome purchase.. great price.. only downside for me, had to use a converter on my heavy duty to downsize to fit this one.. would have been great if this were for a 2 and half inch receiver

Fit on gmc sierra ,Heavy duty nice shape

Solid piece. Fits perfectly on the hitch

bought this for looks in the back of my jeep it’s fits in snug with excellent build quality just pulled my buddy out of a hole too

Bigger than expected. Heavy duty, and looks sick on a front hitch. Didn't want a hook this big but it's so cool I decided it was a keeper.I hit a deer with the hook on while doing 50 a week ago. My hitch hangs from my frame rails on angled brackets and sits directly behind my bumper valance. A heavy duty hitch knocked the deer down, a heavy duty hook pushed it away from the truck so I didn't crush it, and by the time I had finished braking the deer was on its side and not half stuck in my suspension. He got up and ran away too. Without the hitch I'd pay the price of a hitch on a new bumper valance and fog lights + harness repair u clips/bolts and time. Without the hook I'd have antlers and hooves trashing my radiator and trans cooler. With them, the deer got to live another day. That's good in my books

There's always a hook, the hook is, its a damn fine hook!

This was shipped really fast and came in a good sealed box. It is solid and will work for you. Some say it is loose in the receiver and rattles going down the road, that is correct, it is loose and it does rattle. I took some duct tape and wrapped it around the area that goes inside so you do not see the tape and it tightened up good enough for me.As far as the finish goes I have not had it long enough to say, but if it does fade I know where to get a can of black spray paint. Photo is an F150 and the hook sticks out 7 inches from the bumper. I like it sticking out cause I tend to back into things now and then so it saves my bumper.UPDATE: Well, it has been 9 months since I put this on my truck and the glossy shine of the paint has faded a bit but it has not rusted or has the paint chipped off. If you use a chain with it you may scratch or chip the finish. Straps are ok.

9 pounds of forged steel. This thing is awesome. Haven't gotten the opportunity to pull anything with it yet but it keeps jackasses from getting too close :) I have no doubt that when duty calls, the Curt tow hook will answer that call effortlessly. As others have mentioned, it does rattle a little in the hitch receiver but a couple of wraps of electric tape at the front and rear of the shank took care of that. Overall couldn't be happier with my purchase. If you're thinking about picking one up just stop thinking and order one already. You won't regret it.
