Where do you all hook up your breakaway switch to your Jeep? I’ve read that you shouldn’t attach it to the place where the chains attach since if they fail, the switch goes with it, so it should be attached somewhere else. I’ve looked and can’t really find anything to attach it to. The tow hook would be nice, but I don’t know how I’d prevent it from slipping off the open side of the hook.

Clarification: I mean when you’re towing with your Jeep, not when it is being towed.

With my LoD bumper, I was able to mount it in an existing hole. I used a piece of aluminum inside to make it the same height as the hole.

Oh, I’m talking about when I tow a trailer, not when my Jeep is towed.
