We just got hit hard over the weekend. Snow up higher then my knees in my front lawn. Broke a tow hook off the jimmy from pulling someone out. Twisted my knee pushing 2 vehicles. What a gong show!!

Time to do the mid 90s gm truck/suv tow hooks. Mine come off a 4x4 suburban. Only tools needed are a drill and a socket to reinstall the new ones.

Did we ever get hit in southern Alberta. Last week it was +6 in Calgary, now it's -28 overnight. Had 30cm snow in two days and the drifts are crazy. Was able to try out my new tow strap with hooks in a neighbours car. The blazers bean a champ and got me to work every day. This was my view when I got home on Monday, it was a compleate white out on Stoney tr.
