Moose Knuckle 3/4 Split Shackle, Blue Balls 2-Color Combo (Pair)

3/4" Jowl Recovery Split Shackle | Blue Balls 2-Color Combo (Pair)

COMBINE TWO COLORS!!!! Combo colors are sold as pairs and include two shackles.

Introducing the "patent pending" JOWL recovery split shackle. Moose Knuckle's innovative split "J" recovery shackle design eliminates the need for tools or soft shackles while making rope and strap connections faster eliminating the need to remove your shackles from your bumper or hitch receiver to make a connection, hook up a rope, or strap out on the trail. Fast TOOL-LESS closed recovery finally made easy!! THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING!

Just open up the Jowl shackle hooked sides, insert your recovery rope or tow strap looped end, rotate the end of the tow rope or strap to engage both sides of the shackle, pull tight and you are ready to recover your stuck vehicle. Moose Knuckle designed the Jowl with a D-Ring shackle shape for those off-roaders who prefer a more traditional shackle look on their rigs. Built-in pull angle stops are visual reminders that give you feedback to help you keep your pull angles low keeping your recovery safe and as efficient as possible.

The Jowl Recovery Shackle fits any 2" or 2.5" D-Ring tow shackle receiver hitch bracket mount with a 7/8" (0.875") pin hole and a mount width of 1-1/4" (1.25") or less. This 5T (10,000 lb. WLL) forged chromoly steel shackle is guaranteed to speed up vehicle recovery so you can spend more time enjoying the trail instead of being stuck in it. Built-in rubber anti-chatter pads stop the hooked sides from rattling against each other as you navigate the roughest trails. The shackle pin is secured by two Metric M18 cap screws that accept any 1/4" socket wrench. Just grab two 1/4" ratchets and easily remove or attach the shackle to your vehicle without the need to find the correct allen keys or hex wrenches out on the trail. (Bonus: only one screw needs to be removed to attach or remove the shackle from your vehicle adding to the speed and functionality of this design.) Two 6mm Hex to 1/4" square drive adapters are also included with each Jowl split shackle for easy installation.

Each shackle includes four durable nylon shackle isolators. Two 3.0mm thick washers and two 2.0mm thick washers help you center your Jowl shackle on any width bumper shackle mount, gusset, wench rope, or shackle receiver.

All color options are fully interchangeable. Buy two different color shackles and combine them to match the color scheme of your rig and give your build a more custom accented look. The hooked sides are fully covered with a durable powder coating pantone color matched to popular truck and Jeep colors. The shackle pin is Black Nickel plated and machined from High Strength Grade 8 Carbon Steel. All Two Color Combos are sold as pairs and include two shackles.
