Hammerlocks -sort of again


Fitted these yesterday, 10mm Chain Joiners, known as Hammerlocks. I did have 2 shackles to make it easier on the back, but bit the $20 bullet for these.

5 minute install, big pair of multigrips to hold onto( rag insert to protect) and a 2lb hammer to belt the pin through.  10mm shackles fit from safety chain.DSCN7703.JPGDSCN7705.JPG

 Well done Craig! When I fitted these on to my car I included shackles in the other half of the hammerlock to prevent the shackles being "borrowed" by people who may think that their need is greater than mine! Just keep the shackle pins in a safe place in the car. The hammerlocks are easy to dismantle if you wish to add the shackles. Cheers

Terrible photo but should show  what I've done.

 Just Google "Hammerlocks" and various suppliers will show up. Some 4wd places have them, or places that supply chains and lifting equipment. Try trailer retailers or caravan places. If all else fails they're available on EBay. Good luck Keith. Cheers

P.S Unilift or Blackwoods in Orange, NSW may have them too?
