Rick--I have been palpating, inspecting, exploring--but for the life of me cannot find anything solid to hook onto behind the cross bar within reach of the depth of the hook. Maybe there has been a forward production change with elimination of some 'unnecessary' structural element under the ross bar. In any event, I hung the hooks in basically the position you show in your photos. Hung a bunch of dry cleaning on them yesterday--worked fine. Thx.
