Tow Rope Attachment

Recently, my truck has needed some "motivation" while going through a muddy pasture to hook up a trailer. I have a very good tow rope with loops at each end (tow rope good for 20,000# +). When looking for a spot to attach it in the front, I decided to secure the rope to the lower cross-brace on my Ranch Hand Grill Guard and with the help of a 4x4 tractor, I was able to pull through the mud. In the future, is this a good and durable place to secure a tow rope? It is easy to get to and the grill guard is mounted directly to the frame. What are yalls past experience in doing this. Pics in My Photo Gallery if needed.

Your Ranch Hand attachs to the same place that the factory tow hooks do.
Should be at least as strong, go for it.
