RE: 2WD solutions
yeah i would definately get some hooks on the front. you may also look at getting a come along. that's what i got for my truck. you may also want to put some weight in the back. one of the 2 times i've gotten stuck was because the back wheels didn't have any pressure on them. this if just as important as getting good tires. my truck is 2-wheel drive also and all of these things have helped me. also you may try some roofing shingles. i've heard that those can help if you get them under the wheels. just some things to consider.
