Ummm doesn't the GV have tow hooks? My Tracker does. Unless your looking for something different.
For rock rails or sliders try www.Rocky-Road.com or www.calmini.com

Tow hooks
I think all zuke suv's have tow hooks, one in front, and one on the rear.

You both are talking about the tow loops. I am joining an off road club, and they do not use tow straps with metal hooks, only ones with sewn loops on the end. How would I attach one of those to my tow loop? Anyways, I installed my tow hooks today, finally!!!(on my Tracker ZR2). Since I couldn't find ANYTHING online about installing tow hooks on a Tracker, I'll just have to put a page out there on how to do it. The tow hooks I installed look like the one on this page...

I bought two standard tow hooks at pep boys. The place I finally decided on was the third idea, and the best no doubt. I drilled (using a 1/2" bit) through the frame just where you can see it through the lower front fascia bumper. the hooks are on the outsides of the frame, with the hook facing outwards at 9:00. The tow hooks included two 1/2" by 2" bolts, 2 lock washers and 2 nuts each. I purchased four 1/2" by 4" Grade 8 bolts and 8 galvanized washers because I drilled through both sides of the frame. I put the bolt through the hooks from left to right, adding a washer on the side of the hook and the inside part of the frame. Then I put the lock washer and nut on. They are really secure!

Re: Off Road
fiveofun, I can't think of anyone that is currently making sliders specific to the GV. I am making a set for mine here in the next few weeks. I'll post some pics when I'm done.
in regards to the tow hooks question. You can use shackles to attach the tow strap to the loop. Warn has a few but they are much cheaper at farm equipment retailers. :-)
