Best bet is princess auto. Most TJ's (maby all) can be fitted with the generic 10,000lb 2 hole hooks that they sell there. You can get either black or chrome for like $15.

i thought the tj's used a smaller distance between the bolt holes than the usual pa ones.  |

I got my shiny meat hooks at Lyns in Truro and paid less that 20$ for two and grade 8 bolts.Fit like a glove.These ones have more of a hook that the OEM ones

I checked it out. The generic 2 holers will work, they have the same bolt spacing as the stock TJ hooks, and are stronger. Stock (7000lbs max):  Generic: (10,000lbs max)  |

I believe that RayJay Distributing - Automotive Outfitters (468-5082) have both 10K lb long shank sets (including bolts and clips) that Rob displayed pics of. I recently changed mine from the OEM and it affords more clearance concerning mounted fog or driving lights mounted on the bumper - less likely to take 'em out with a recovery strap/cable. I did, however, buy longer grade 8 bolts from PA to use in lieu of the grade 5 OEM that I had (note: the package comes with grade 5 bolts).
I noticed that PA didn't have any 10K lb. long shank the other day, only the OEM style 7.5K lb; forget what they wanted for them.
