HitchLink 2.0 Receiver Shackle Mount

The Factor 55 HitchLink 2.0 is a robust receiver shackle mount engineered to transform your vehicle's standard 2-inch hitch receiver into a reliable recovery point. Constructed from lightweight, yet incredibly strong, 6000 series aluminum, this mount is precision CNC machined for optimal performance and durability. Key features include a striking red color, a durable anodized or powder-coated finish to prevent oxidation, and a significantly lower weight (1.9 pounds) compared to steel alternatives (up to 8 pounds). It boasts a working load rating of 9500 pounds and an ultimate failure point of 51,000 pounds, ensuring it can handle demanding recovery situations. The HitchLink 2.0 is designed to fit common 3/4-inch screw pin shackles and D-rings, and includes a machined radius on the shackle mount hole for soft shackle compatibility. When using this recovery device, it is crucial to adhere to safety guidelines. Never exceed your factory receiver hitch's pull rating. Always utilize a quality steel alloy 5/8-inch hitch pin for secure attachment. Furthermore, ensure that you always pull in line with the hitch, avoiding any binding or side loading of the shackle to maintain structural integrity and prevent accidents. This product is proudly Made in the USA, reflecting a commitment to quality manufacturing.
