Default Need help with how to tow-had a blow out

I just had a blow out on I-10 between Sulphuric and Vinton, LA.

HOW DO I INSTALL THE FRONT TOW HOOK AND/Or where to I tell the tow truck to hook the cable if it needs to be towed. Feel free to call/text me 512-627-7023. Looking at the front I don’t see a blank that would cover the tow hook, it I’ve never had to do this. Brand new 245/45/16.

Thanks KS for any help.

Josh

I have little direct experience, but here is what I believe to be true:

1) Most of us will not be able to unscrew the plug for the tow hook, not on the side of the road and probably not even in the garage. Corrosion.

2) Pulling the car up backwards on a flatbed will prevent damage to the front spoiler and to front suspension components the driver may be tempted to attach his hook.
