Review on πŸ”— 5/16in Bolt-On Grab Hook Mount with Clevis Mount - Pack of 2 by Lamar Hopkins

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good luck with the install - the holes don't match, even close!

First of all - I'm a CAD operator - I understand drawing and machining and I can weld - but it's awful! support plates! (although it's the same! :-)) I understand that sometimes things go wrong - but is it true? The center hole spacing is NOT nearly what it should be, and the offset to each end is wide as well. In the picture you ONLY see half of the hole - so the tolerance here should be around 10k, maybe - a 1/4 inch deviation! I thought of making an odd hole and using a backing plate - after a second I said no - I used a large washer and blocked the hook. On my tractor, 4 wheels slip before I damage the bucket/hook or whatever. Plate? Damn close! But whoever is on the QC shift should be fired! Does it cost money NOT to make your own? Perhaps. But the specs are so bad that you have to modify it to make it work out of the box. as was expected.
