I have always wondered if these baws stole them from job sites or actually bought them. The very large ones aren't all that cheap.

You know they stole them off a job site. Those big ones are hundreds of dollars.

I just assumed they were to hook up a tow strap, but I agree it seems like a bit of over kill. The lack of scratches in the paint tells you they don't actually use them.

Im offshore right now and could get one that tops all of those. It would take 2 people to install that bastard of a shackle on a truck. No fricking point in that.

If the blue one on the suburban is now on a Toyota, I know who you're talking about. I gave him that shackle. We have a few more here at the shop if anyone is interested.

I have one on my FORD, it's to balance out weight from all the LED light bars I have up front.

I've got shackles on my ARB bumper attached to my 100 series. Very useful.

They're basically like pierced nipples on a man.

Odd to look at, don't really serve a real purpose, and most likely means you're gay.
