Clevis shackle


Recommended Posts

It would be sufficient depending on:

 

1.) What it's mounted to. Screwed to bumper, no. Mounted properly with back braces along the frame rails, yes. In a hitch receiver (even though it says so), probably not.

2.) You're not hanging 10K+ lbs. on it

3.) You're not "jerking" the load.

4.) You're using a strap with the same or better load rating without strap hooks.

 

Respect the load rating, and less. The clevis shackle could probably hold alot more, the Jeep? not so much.

The short answer is yes, they will be fine. :shake:

 

I picked up 4 "fancy shackles from essentials last year. They are nicer designed for working with straps and the safety thimble I have on my winch cable.
