ABSTRACT:
A tow cable with bracket and storage means, which includes a tow cable which is attached to a vehicle by means of a heavy steel bracket to which is welded a cable housing in the form of a flexible tubing of at least the length of the tow cable. The flexible tubing is attached to the undercarriage configuration of the vehicle so as to provide permanent, on-vehicle, protected storage for the cable. An end plate is welded at the end of the bracket with a hole formed therein so as to align with the end of the flexible tubing. A stop sleeve is pressed on the non-extending end of the cable; the hole in the end plate being sized to permit passage of the cable, but not the stop sleeve. A smooth steel slip hook, is attached to the extendable end of the cable. A hook receiving means, such as a circular ring, is welded to the bracket to provide a location for the slip hook when the cable is not in use and is stored in the cable housing.
