Rear Tow Point Help

Need to install a rear tow point/hook on my '98 Cherokee. I know the Up Country Suspension Group added a rear Tow point to the Cherokee, but have never seen one.

Is there a way to add a rear tow point/hook to a Cherokee, or do I have to add a replacement bumper or a tow hitch to get one? Would appreciate any help anybody can provide, and pics would help as well. Need to get a rear tow point on the vehicle before the end of the month (already have front tow hooks/mounts on order).

rear hitch is the best way.

Theres no justifying installing a tow hook when you can install a rear hitch that ties the frame rails together, gives you a tow point, and allows you to tow a 5,000# trailer (depending on your engine/transmission). I paid about $100 for a class 3 hitch and installed it in about 20 minutes.

another vote for the hitch.

adds strength to the frame, lets you tow, much stronger then a side mounted hook, and costs about the same as the rear hook kit
