    I hit and bent my driver side tow hook. It was at very low speed but it hit perfectly causing the hook to be at a 45 degree angle. It bent the mount and i have a slight crack on the bolt holding the transmission cooler behind the grille. It also tweaked my bumper out a little. Sad day.

    Now my body mount bushings squeak. When I flex the suspension i can feel the mount squishing and squeaking.

    any recommendations?

    I would have a body/fame shop look at it. Maybe you damaged the frame in some way, or sheared/loosened the body mount on that side you hit. Sounds like it was a good hit if you are seeing cracks/impacts in several areas....tow hooks, body mount, trans cooler.
