Size Tow Hook for 2012 Z?
 
Hi Folks!

Iīm from Germany, Sorry for my bad english.
I have an Tow Hook with 24mm for my 370Z, but it doesīt match :confused:
What size is for the 370Z? It is an 2012.

Thanks for your help :-)

Fienchen,
No worries about your english. I just checked what we have on the shelf. Nissan has made MANY different tow hooks over the past few years. Most are a 24mm tow hook. Then the thread pitch has changed either in the crash beam or the tow hook itself.

The 2012 370Z uses a M24 x 3.00 mm tow hook while other 350Z and G35 models did use a M24 x 2.50 mm tow hook.

Thanks for your answers.
It is a tow hook like this here in the picture.
The thread to put it on my Z is a little bit to big.

i think he asked if you needed a extension piece to have the towhook stick out past the bumper (i think), i barely understood it myself. but Dustin is right, the thread is a 24mm.

Is the thread different for a '13? Most I've seen for sale are for 09 to 12. Makes me wonder if they changed it in 13?
