Looking for tow bar options for 82 FJ60. Can one be mounted direct to factory bumper similar to pic?
My FJ is the red one.

Good idea. Would you mind sharing pics?I mounted the bracket bar to the bottom of my FJ40 bumper, so I would not deface the visible face of the front bumper. Consider doing that if your tow bar setup allows.
A few extra holes in the bottom of a bumper are not nearly as visible as holes in the front.
That’s a good looking rig. Thanks for sharing!Don't laugh - my tow bar brackets were part of a Western snow plow mount on a Ford pickup. The hole spacing perfectly matched my tow bar spacing and it was beefy. There is a long, reinforced bar under the bumper and the actual brackets stick up and in front of the bumper itself. Pretty slick, for being a hillbilly fab job. That's my trickle charger wire stuck through the right side bracket.

Hi @SteveH , I have the FSM and could not find anything in there about flat towing.
Unfortunately I do not have a owners manual and tried finding one under PDFs.
@Seth S yeah that's what I was thinking. Would I need to do anything else in terms of transfer case or transmission?
Unfortunately I leave Saturday, so not really enough time to buy a dolly.
hahahahahh @Seth S uhaul is the reason I am in this predicament. They have NO dollys or auto-transporters within 250 miles of me. So I had to get creative so I could move my LC with me out to Montana. And the best / only option I found was to flat tow (OR pay $1,000 to a car transport company).
