Base - Only one rear tow hook?

[Scott R Nelson]

My 2021 2-door Base Bronco has two tow hooks in front but only one in the rear, on the driver side. Looking underneath at the back, it has room for one on the right and the bolts are there that match what is holding the left one on.

So I ordered another one from the dealer so that I will have four as Ford should have built it.

Is this normal for the Base model, or for other models? Or did they leave a part off of it when they built it?

This is the only photo that I have (headed into the car wash) showing one under the license plate, but not one on the other side:

I "think" maybe more models had 2 rear hooks in 2021, but base didn't. They dropped the second hook due to cost cutting , parts restraints. I "thought" only the wildtrack and first editions had 2

But i only re ally know about the base, and i don't think base ever had 2

For reference this is part number for the hook

Only 1 on my base as well.

My ‘21 BD has 2, and I believe it’s because we got the Mod bumper. Seems like I read here that it’s a thing…

Has everything to do with trim level nothing else.

Nope. Mine has the mod bumper and it only has one. I think '21 (at least some) had two. Everyone else gets one.

Believe only badlands comes with 2. 21 SAS OBX has 1

That's not a strong thing either and should be considered only for winching and not kinetic work.
