Another thing to check...is the thread "pitch" the same ?
It sounds like it could be a fine thread bolt in a "normal" threaded hole ?

I have several hooks off of some Rodeo's that fit but they aim down instead of sideways. The bolt for the mount is a fine thread M10mmx1.25 and Lowe's should have them or a commercial bolt supply. Email me if you want the Rodeo hooks and we'll work something out to cover freight.
thanks tone, i was using the right size bolts...i actually tried to use the bolts from the stock hook in the other location.. they simply do not want to go in.. not sure why... i also have a hook identical to our stock one, came off the back of an 89 trooper.. ill mess with it more tomorrow after classes
They probably are running into junk built up.. Like Lawrence said, run a tap through the holes just to clean 'em up. Wished we could find a true opposite of the OEM hook.
