Tow hooks on L200

Where is the best place to mount some tow hooks on my L200?
There is the std hook on the lower LH side but nothing on the rear.
I'm just looking for ideas on where to and mount some other hooks properly.

Managed to score some Landcruiser 100 series tow hooks from work.
I've sussed a good place on each side at the rear on the towbar frame directly inline with the chassis rails. I've drilled and tapped the metal as its a good 10mm thick and I've threaded the bolts into it and also put nyloc nuts on the otherside as extra precaution.
The bolts are the from cruiser as well. 14mm x 1.5 and rated to T11.
I think this way they will be plenty strong enough. :D
