A method for manufacturing a tow hook assembly begins with heating a first steel blank to within a range of 2200° F. and 2300° F. to create a first heated steel blank. A second steel blank is heated to within the range of 2200° F. at 2300° F. to create a second heated steel blank. The first heated steel blank is forged into a tow hook. The second heated steel blank is forged into a flange plate. The tow hook in the flange plate are welded together to form the tow hook assembly. This method reduces waste by minimizing the size of the first and second steel blanks.
