I don't think the crash bar is thick enough to drill and tap to use as a tow point. Believe you have to weld a plate to the crash bar to make it thick enough. You wouldn't have enough threads to hold any pulling. The other thing you can do. Is to drill all the way through the crash bar. Think there is an inner web of material in it. So basically you would be drilling 3 holes. Once drilled. Put the tow hook all the way through. Use a large washer or plate on the end, then install your nut on the end.
