Tractor supply ones often aren't rated- just make sure they have the ratings stamped on them. just because they are thick doesn't mean they are strong.

They only sell the ones made by WARN that I am aware of. The WARN reciever shackle is sold by every offroad shop out there along with the same WARN D-shackles everyone out there is selling..... just at a MUCH better price and no shipping charges. I will definately say to anyone that has bought the WARN recovery stuff that Tarctor Supply sells or anyone considering it, that WARN makes quality stuff and you shouldn't think twicw about buying it and using it.

Actually TSC sells a generic style as well! If you go to the tractor parts and pins you will see a 6ton(pretty sure its 6tons) rated shackle that is the same size as the one that Warn makes! That is what I use on my jeep and atv's! I have done a tug a ware between my old ford f-250 4wd and another truck identical to it with a chain and 2 of those and they didnt break!

I bought all of mine from Northern tools and equipment. Since I've moved, the local TSC pretty much has the same stuff.

I've yanked on them, beat the shit out of them, and overall making them work. I've never had a problem.

The warn ones are like 20 bucks a pop while I paid about 5 bucks for all of mine. I got 4 of them, came in handy when I got my sisters discovery stuck...fortunately I had the synthetic winch line extension cable, 10' chain, and a hi-lift in the back!
