tow hook

Postby westers » Fri Jun 22, 2012 12:17 pm

got stuck in a feild last night :oops: and when i went to get towed out i couldnt find the tow hook, looked everywhere in the cubby hole on the left hand side where the jack and wheel brace was and didnt see it, luckily we got a chain arround the back ends tie down hooks

Image

note, had to go in the feild :( no where else to park on site :|


my question it will any ford tow hook fit or will i have to get a connect one? i know my only car mk6 fiesta had a screw on one

or does anyone have a spare?

Here is a story of a man named dick,
who had, poor fellow, a corkscrew prick,
he spent his time on a lifelong hunt,
looking for a girl with a spiral c**t. :shock:

He ended his search in far glamorgan,
where he found a girl with such an organ,
but on his wedding night he dropped down dead,
for he found her vagina was a left hand thread. :lol:
