AR | S.I.T.H. Modular Bumper Shackle - Common Hardware REIMAGINED
Just because something has been around for a hundred years and commonly used doesn't mean it cant be looked at with today's technology, design principles, and manufacturing capabilities to refine the product.
I doubt there has ever been a company that sat down with the intent to make a vehicle specific shackle and not just resize hardware to make it work, but design it to fit the vehicle's design and its purpose. This isn't a rehash of crane tackle or something you would find in the hands of a longshoreman. The S.I.T.H. is 100% Bronco Modular Bumper, through and through. Made to be used, abused, and torture tested. It's a statement piece.
The Numbers and Specs
SITH-7075 T6 rated at 74,000-78,000 PSI weighs in at 1.7 lbs ea. (FEA data to be provided soon)
The Bolt-18-8 Rockwell B55 70,000 lb Tensile 35,000 lb Shear
Color
Watermelon Sugar Red & BADLANDS Orange - Powdercoated and then post machined for highlights
Why we're doing this
I want a bespoke recovery shackle. One that doesn't jingle. One that doesn't easily sway. No need for silencers. I want a bolt that isn't off the shelf. I actually want it hidden. I want it clean. I want a shackle with some presence. I want them to be asymmetrical. I want a shackle that doesn't look like it's from Harbor Freight sprayed in a fancy shade of KRYLON.
Availability
The S.I.T.H. will be release in two colors. You can select between Watermelon Sugar Red and BADLANDS Orange. S.I.T.H. will begin machining, beginning the week of January 3rd. We'll shoot for ship dates in mid February.
We'll continue to release custom colors and finishes throughout the year. Continue to follow the thread for upcoming colors.
