3/4 " 4 Ton Shackles

Here is my daughter Morgan modeling our most recent find.  They are rated for 4 3/4 tons each and I picked up 4 of them for my custom bumpers from the local metal supply yard for $32.00  ($8.oo each). Let me know if you are in need of some of these. They have tons of them at this price and I’m always looking for an excuse to visit the metal shop.

2 1/2 inch square tube for a 2 inch mount.

Building my own hitch mount to stick in the custom bumper I’m building.  2 1/2 ” square tube fits a 2″ hitch. (Some internal grinding required). This will never be used to carry anything heavier than a motorcycle or a cooler full of beer behind the van. I’m not sure if factory made hitches are made out of a special type of steel but this will certainly work for what I am going to throw at it.
