05' with tow hooks

pyromedic · 01-08-2005, 08:13 AM

Anyone else out there have an 05' with the tow hooks on the front bumper. I have them but, I thought you had to have the off-road package to have them. All I have is the BT and Navi. I was wondering if it's standard on the 05' or did Nissan mess up and add them to mine by mistake.

Mine doesn't have them. I have an LE CC with BT. I'd say you got a freebee.

My 04 LE with Big Tow has the tow hooks. Unless they changed in 05 I think the Big Tow (maybe in combo with the LE) comes with the tow hooks.

I have the 05 LE CC with Big Tow (not the OR) and have the hooks.

I'm sure your truck doesn't look right with them....
Soooo.... the least I can do for a fellow Titan owner is to take them off your hands.

Yep, it's standard on the '05 LEs now along with the rear power window, and reverse sensors. Can't wait till it comes in!!!

My 04 SE does not have big tow or off road, but did come with the tow hooks. However, it is a 4X4.

'05 SE with Big Tow and I got them :-)

Didn't even think to notice that before...LOL

Tow hooks are standard on the 4x4's.

i have them, with no tow pack at all...front hooks, but nothing in the rear to hook to if i needed too... class 4 hitch pack at my old work i can get for about $115 (store's cost) for just the hardware (no wiring)...ordering soon so i can get people unstuck if need be, i dont plan to tow anything

In 2004 the only Titan with tow hooks was 4x4. I know this from countless hours of walking around nissan lots! I noticed the other day that a 2005 2x4 had hooks. It appears that they were only on LE models. I could be wrong.

Hemi-Smoker not so...

Our 2004 SE KC 4X2 w/BT and OR had the hooks..the uploaded pic is our 'old' '04

Our current 2005 SE KC 4X2 w/BT has the hooks...its the truck in the sig

Yes, like Chris said, that's not correct.

The off-road pkg denotes tow hooks on a '04 4x2. 4x4s had them standard, regardless of OR or BT pkgs.
Great to know that the '05s have the hooks with Big Tow or LE

To me, the tow hooks were the only part of the OR pkg that were useful. The skid plates are too thin to help if you bottom-out, the Rancho shocks had their share of problems (standard ones perform just as well), and the wheels IMO are kind of... ugly. The wider OR tires were cool though! I would have liked to have those.

Okay thanks, I guess we concluded that the 05' LE has the tow hooks. To LouFish, Nice try but, I think I'll keep them for now. They would look pretty cool if I had them Chromed, huh? I just thought of that...
