WTB towing/pulling shackles
Want to buy 2 towing/pulling shackle assemblies s ready to mount to truck. After reading mjmarinara's post in the 67-72 pickups section, it made me realize it would be good to get some of those for my truck. I would like to buy some like those.

Contact Engineered Vintage on Facebook. I think he may be on the forum too but not sure about his user name. Or here https://engineeredvintage.com/

Re: WTB towing/pulling shackles
I buy those locally. TSC, a good hardware store, trailer supply, or machinery parts businesses.

Re: WTB towing/pulling shackles
I like mjmarinara's mounts better. They'd be stronger without all that extension. Bending the frame is a concern here and those engineered Vintage ones put a lot of extra leverage extended off the frame. The tighter to the frame the better. Look up Crosby Shackles for a full variety of shackle hooks
