FEELER: Receiver Hitch Shackle's

I've made a couple of these so far and am curious how many of you would be interested in buying these if i was to make a bunch. They are made from 2 inch solid steel that fits perfect in the hitch and then the shaft with the shackle on it is 1 1/8" thick. if your interested throw your name on the list and I'll see how many i should make if theirs an interest. they are all hand made by my self.

I'm thinking price will be 40$ for just the hitch part and 50$ for hitch and a 4.5 ton 3/4 shackle.

shipping will be in the smallest usps flat rate boxes and i think those are 5$

PM me with any questions or if you would like yours to be different

Looks like solid quality! Good work.

 

thanks i'll have a video of us yanking on it soon.

 

srry if im a noob but what exactly do you pull with that?

 

Nice work and these are becoming popular again.

I also sent you a pm.....

S

 

If you need to get pulled out from behind if you are stuck, or need to pull somebody else out.

 

looks meteor proof. PM sent.

 

thanks for the answer why'll i was out lol

and thanks for your guy's interest i really like the one i built for my self and had my room mate pull me on the street since we dont really have any mud holes right now for me to get stuck in. i had all four tires locked in this video and he had to have it in 4Low to break me loose.

 

hmm video is not showing hold ill get it up in a sec

 

EDIT: i added the video and adding a couple pictures

 

Bump for Tim.

 

Wish I had the money, bump

 

May be none of my business, but you should be really careful pulling on that shackle using a tow strap with hooks. If something happens and that strap snaps it could do some serious damage. Just be careful, that is why I only use tow straps that do not have hooks.

As for the hitch shackle and receiver, I wish you would have posted this up a month ago before I bought my new one. It does not seem too solid, but it will have to do for now. Yours look great and strong.

 

Yeah, its my old vehicle tow strap I use for towing broke down cars/trucks off the street, I have a much nicer 3"x30' 27,000lb rated one for actual off road recovery that just has loops on the ends.

 

thanks alot and ya not my strap but all we had at the time we were making the video. wish i would have had these a month ago too. if yours ends up going to shit let me know and i'll make yu one

 

this is the first one i ever built and the piece that the shackle goes through is a little smaller than i wanted but still damn strong. its 7/8" thick instead of 1 1/8". it has a 3.5 ton 1/2 inch shackle and i'm gonna sell it to who ever wants it first for 25$ since its not as beefy as the ones i'm doing now.

 

these look just like the shackle hitches from harbor freight

 

I learned the hard way on those straps. Had one break in half at the hook part, well the other half came through back windows like a bullet.

 

Yea, I somewhat figured this was not your offroad tow strap. Cannot be too safe though. I will definitely be in touch if mine takes a crap.

 

haha he pulled your truck around like a rag doll thats funny but i had one of thos straps break at the hook and end up in my drivers side head light it wasnt good glad it hit the head light instead of going through the windsheild and hitting me i learned that lesson really quick i stay way from thos straps
