Has anyone installed a driver side tow hook on the 06 X yet? I've seen some posts for tow hooks on the older generations where the nuts were not welded on the frame. Does anyone know if they are welded in the inside frame where the tow hook would go on the new generation xterra? If so do you know the size of the bolts required to fit the nut? were there any problems installing?
We want to go camping on Friday and take the canoe with us. It would be really nice to have a tow hook on that side to attach my strap to (as we have dual straps for the front, one on each side).
Here were a couple of links that may be useful.

I didnt see anywhere in any of the posts that said they have done it with the new generation xterra. I think they were all from the first generation. Anyone do it with the 2005 or 2006 models?
