Unfortunately those are 60-68 truck hooks and are not a direct bolt on for your Blazer.

I agree, those were advertised incorrectly. That being said, I am sure you can drill some holes and get them to mount just fine.

Here is toomuchstuff's tow hook guide:

Does anyone have a pic of the tow hooks mounted?

I scored a set at the Charlotte Auto Fair this weekend, but don't see where they will mount and clear the bumper.

See my K20 build thread linked in signature below for pics. 72? If not, you have to drill your own holes in the frame.
