Do the Tow Hooks Have To Be Removed When Installing a Bull Bar On a Ram 2500/3500
Question:
Do I have to do away with my tow hooks on a 2018 Ram 3500 if I put on a bull bar? Or is there a bar that works? Thanks

I have the perfect option for a Ram 2500/3500 which is to use the Aries Bull Bar with Removable Skid Plate part # AA35-5006 with the Tow Hooks for Aries 3" and 4" Bull Bars part # AA35-5TOW. The bull bars do require the factory tow hooks to be removed but Aires has come out with a set of tow hooks (see above) that will work with their bull bar so you don't have to make any sacrifices.
The Aries Bull Bar with Removable Skid Plate and Tow Hooks for Aries 3" and 4" Bull Bars combo fits all 2010-2018 Ram 2500 and 3500 models. I have attached an install photo for you as well that shows the above bull bar and tow hook compatibility.
