🔗 5/16in Bolt-On Grab Hook Mount with Clevis Mount - Pack of 2 Review

Update: These hooks were not available. Accessible. 6 months ago. They were from another side. Backing plates were at extra cost and shipping was at extra cost. All at a higher price. Glad I didn't pull the trigger. Then I looked around a lot. I'm very glad I waited. Really great product.

Works great. Easy Installation - Determine where you want to attach the hook, drill holes and screw in place. I did not use skid plates - tests have shown that they are not needed and the loader will fail before the hook, pins or chain. I installed three - two on the sides and one in the middle.

I installed them on a Kubota B2650 with a 52" bucket (SSQA). Due to the construction of the bucket they have to be mounted a little further from the edge of the bucket than I would have liked and I didn't use a base plate as the top of the bucket is several layers thick. These seem to be very strong hooks and should work very well function.

Bought these to mount on a compact tractor bucket. I tried these hooks as they were half the price of some other brands and came with the base plates. In the first set, one of the hooks was welded from a square. Sent it back and tried again. The second set was worse than the first. Both hooks were not square. One of the hooks snapped and the welding looked as if it had been done in a hurry. The coating was also of poor quality. As a result, I went back and bought a US made set.

Hooks look great after a very good weld. Easy to install, drilled a pilot hole then enlarged to 1/2 inch. I added flat washers on either side of the bolt that didn't come with the hooks. It probably won't be needed on the underside since the bottom panel is thick. and durable. The screws provided are grade 8 and I've had snags on other buckets with lower quality screws and never had a problem. I'm sure these hooks are strong enough to lift any weight the tractor is capable of. Elevator.

The top of my RK37 bucket was too narrow to fit back to back, one on top and one in the bucket so I have all 4 Installed. evenly distributed at the top of the bucket. I made a small ledge with the bases, I found large washers that fit in the lip of the bucket and added the brackets. Once installed, they were incredibly helpful. I have lifted furniture, a 10ft x 5ft boardwalk, stacks of wood and the ring and hook arrangement is great. Hook the chain to the shackle, bring it under the tree and…

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
