    After owning a 02 Tundra for 12 years I finally updated to a 12 rock warrior. My question is this, I want to add a bull bar but everything I'm reading says you have to remove the tow hooks in order to do this. As I don't have the truck at home yet, is this the case, or can you remount the hooks with the bull bar? Thanks

    Welcome from CO. Be careful, bull bars may actually cause more damage to your vehicle in an accident.

    Welcome from CO. The beefy Westin Ultimate Bull Bar that I used to have on my truck did not allow to retain your tow hooks. The cheaper Westin bull bar let you keep your hooks. Just remember bull bars provide minimal protection...
