where do you pull from?

Got to thinking with this horrible winter were having, where is the best place to pull from the fit. Best place from the front and from the back? Is there a good place to attach a permenant hook or bolt? Are there tie down straps somewhere they use when transporting the cars on trailers?

Will have to take a look myself when I can get it indoors. Allot of you are very knowledgable so I thought I would get the expert opinions to start with.

There's an included tow hook with the spare tire kit. Manual says where to place it.

Front and rear bumper have cap on bumper faces and just remove caps and install tow hooks, included with your tool kit-usually located in spare tire area and follow instructions in owners manual. Easy to do.

Yep, you guys are right. Tow hook is in canvas bag with tire changing tools under the floor hatch where the spare tire is. I put a tow strap with a small clevis on top of the spare tire so I should be ready if things go bad. Everything "fit" in the compartment perfectly. Guess I would have known that if I read my manual completely

Hey, no problema. Glad you found them and now you know. Hope you never have to use them, but if you do, then you are ready to go. Enjoy!
