What size screw pin shackles for front bumper?

[MTVR]

The hole looks like it's about 1-9/16". Anybody install some yet?

They are slightly bigger than the 1.5in pin hole. I reamed the hole on the shackle base and it fit

Or these fit the 1.5in directly.

Thank you very much, Wes. I've got a pair of these coming now.

Thank you very much, Wes. I've got a pair of these coming now.

If and when you get them. Remove the cotter pin and throw it away. It rusts really quick and is a pain to get out. I put hairpins in the hole or a smaller easier to bend cotter pin

Will do. Thank you again.

That hole is meant for the tow bar adapter that uses a 1.5" pin

 

[MTVR]

Well, that's strange- I got an email confirmation of my order, and then a little later the seller refunded my money, with no explanation...

 

[MTVR]

Looks like the order has been cancelled, with no explanation...WTF?

Thanks, Wes.

I saw that guy's ad.

The price for the parts themselves is acceptable, but he wants over $80 for UPS ground shipping, which sounds awfully steep to me.

It says he's from Augusta Georgia- any idea who he is, so that I can call him and try to get the shipping price squared away?

 

[MTVR]

Got it figured out- he's Comtac. Shipping will be $22, and he's just gonna refund me the difference.

I'm thankful.

Now I gotta figure out what size recovery strap I'm gonna need, and get that ordered. I'm guessing that I'm gonna need one bigger than the one that Micah killed on youtube...

My customers use these for their 5 tons that pull grinder. 1 hooked to each side should work in a worst case ever on a 7 ton if it's that bad it is gonna take a big winch or a wrecker

The 21-ton shackles showed up today. The through bolt pin is much less than 1.5", and fits quite loosely in the hole.

Now I gotta figure out what to paint them with...
