Looking for an adjustable tow hook. Something that functions like the one pictured.

I could be wrong.
Your mileage may vary.
Always wear a seatbelt.
Don't drink and drive.

Although different than the older stlyle you show, something modern like this;

cadzilla, these are hard to find particularly in Oz, i'm going to make mine out of some 'C' shape aluminum and dremel out the elongated hole for the hook to move back an forth.

Jim Ealy identified the tow hook as an old Airtronics design.

"Yes, it is an airtronics tow hook.
Occasionally they show up on ebay - $9 to $12...

If you find one, cut it in half and make two. You can only really move a tow hook about 0.25" in either direction of the middle position.
HOWEVER, the airtronics tow hook is not strong enough for an AJ. It will bend open on the first winch or high start launch."

jcstalls pointed out the one I'll be buying, unless there's something better out there.

Hey Miraj, please give more details, in my country there aren't towhooks so it would be nice to know your approach.

Here's a great version. Less travel but better construction...
