TOW HOOKS | DATSUN | 260Z | 280Z

Skillard front and rear tow hooks for the 260Z and 280Z. 

(If you're looking for tow hooks for installation on a 240Z, click here.)

FRONT TOW HOOKS:
We offer two styles.

One style is designed for builds running a front grill and NO front bumper. These front tow hooks are CNC cut 3/16" steel and come in two (2) pieces. When installed, the two-piece design allows the tow hook to come through a full front grill. This is fairly unique, and is a great solution for builds with a full front grill that still need a front tow hook. The mount is aligned horizontally, so there's no need to chop apart your existing grill. The hook hole ID is 2" and new 10mm bolts as well as washers are included to mount to the OEM bumper locations.

Our second style of 260Z & 280Z Front Tow Hooks are compatible with either our 240Z-style front bumper, or an OEM 240Z front bumper. This style is a single piece per side. Not only will these work with our bumper conversion brackets and front bumper installed, but they also work with our front grills, and our front lip splitters as well as our air dam and splitter kit.

These front tow hooks are CNC cut from 3/16" steel and come in a durable black powder coat finish.

Offered as a pair of front tow hooks or a single front tow hook (your choice of driver or passenger).

Mounting hardware is included.

Installed pictures are NOT powder coated to contrast against the rest of the black parts for better visibility. Tow hooks will come powder coated black. 

REAR TOW HOOKS:

These are CNC cut 3/16" steel with added gussets TIG welded in place. These are sold as a pair for both the driver and passenger side as well as individually in case you only want one. The hook hole ID is 2" and new 10mm bolts as well as washers are included to mount to the OEM bumper locations. These are available in durable black powder coat. Since these mount in the same location as the factory bumper the bumper will need to be removed to mount the tow hooks. Removal of the rear bumper is not for road use.

The rear driver side tow hooks are the same on the late 1974 (check your car to make sure it has the offset bolt pattern seen in the pictures above) and 1975-78, it is the passenger side that changes in 1977. In 1977-78 the bumper mounting holes on the rear passenger side are not staggered like they are on the earlier years, instead they are vertical to one another. See pictures.

Offered as a pair of rear tow hooks or single rear tow hook (your choice of driver or passenger). Available in durable black powder coat.

Check out our video below pulling a 1976 280Z sideways with a come-a-long attached to the tow hook. These are not intended to drag a car sideways, but wanted to share some of our testing.

NOT INTENDED TO SECURE VEHICLE TO TRAILER. Not a tie-down point.

* It is not advised that tow hooks be used to strap down your car for transport. Use of properly installed, quality wheel straps have been recommended by auto transport professionals.
