I've never seen one on a 55. Can you spot it?
Hint: It's not the pintle I've seen one of those.

Not so much hard to find but something I have never seen.
Spare tire carrier for 3 speed pigs.

My early (Nov 68') pig came with a rear tow hook. It only came with one on the passeger's side. It was mounted vertically, on the underside of the rear frame rail. It was not mounted horizontally, as the above picture shows. No special frame mods or plates.
I didn't keep it on for long after I got the pig for obvious reasons. The mounting point on my frame is actually twisted a little from catching the hook on a rock.

The hook on my truck pictured above is a rear hook from a '60 series. I can't imagine a vertically mounted hook!

The hook shown above in the diagram looks like it goes on the outside of the frame and is horizontal.
I agree, it looks like the one I have only mounted to the opposite side frame rail.

i'm guessing you're talking about the interior one? that looks a like like the one in the 45lvs...bet it's the same. i don't know if the 45s have the little chocks on the floor though.
not related to the tire carrier, wonder what part number 58001-90352 would cost? i'll let someone here figure out what that is
Similar but not the same as an LV and yes, the LV does have the chocks on the floor.
