Does anyone know if the rear shackles are available anywhere or are these custom made? Would they just bolt on at the original holes?

 

what sonic said, they are chrysler mil spec shackels. while they are not available for sale to the public, i spoke with them at sema and they might be soon. so you know, they aren't cheap.

 

I got the Warn receiver shackle for mine. Granted, it's not anywhere as cool as the military version but it works well and is a lot cheaper.

 

trust me, the warn receiver shackles are A LOT cheaper and more functional. by far, these look really cool but i don't know if i personally would be willing to pay about $100 each just for something that looks "cool". but hey, that's just me.

 

I've got a reciever tow hook like this one from Q-Tec, but those just look real good & the bumper looked real simple.

 

I agree it's cool and it's such a simple design that I wonder what it would cost to fab one from scratch?

 

considering it's a forged piece, it might be a lot.

 

Wouldn't it be fun to sling-load a JK under a CH47? Now that's how they should bring one in at SEMA!
Here is my idea of what a good sling shackle is:
Crosby S-253 Screw Pin Type Shackle
It spreads the sling width out, instead of bunching up material in the middle, thus ensuring maximum sling strength. I have not bought any yet, but they run about $25-$30 each.

 

Yep, Great shackle. I'm a certified crane inspector & civil engineer. If your life depends on a shackle, pick a Crosby. But, be warned, there are a lot of china-made fakes with Crosby markings.

 

Woods will be offering something similar for use with standard shackles:
