It was me that made the shackles.
I would really need some other people wanting some made because I have run out of the metal to make them.
Unfortunatly I have to order it in 6 metre lengths and that would cost me more than the shackles are worth for just one set.
My friend has an engineering company so I will see if he has any of the right size.
I do supply the bolts as well.

Thanks, Kev.
 






what are the shackles for?

would it be worth chucking in for the steel?

Hi Guys and Gals,

I've decided to order some metal for doing the Shackles again.

They will be painted, new bolts, and including p&p [heavy buggars] for £55.30.
I will do standard size replacements or the 2" lift.

The 2" lift ones will come with a bracket for the self leveling switch for an extra £5.

I've also started making some stainless steel replacement bolts for the tailgate glass. No more rusty stains going down the glass!!! They are £15 a pair.

I don't make much profit on any of these things. I am medically retired and it gives me something to do.

If anybody would like any, please get in touch.

I also have access to a CNC lathe and miller. If anyone needs anything making such as one off shafts, bolts, spacers, drilling and tapping or milling work, welding, again please get in touch.

Thanks

Kev.
