I was reading somewhere that there are shackles that allow the
attaching of a tow bar directly to them somehow...rather than
attaching directly to the bumper..has anyone heard of this and if so,
can you direct me to a picture, plans, or a web site...i am aslo
interested in fabricating my own tow bar...any ideas or plans

thanks

I think you'll be happier with brackets welded or bolted to your
bumper.

Had a '95. Bought the shackle replacement and tow bar from Currie. Towed
that little Wrangler behind my 40 foot diesel pusher American Dream for
50,000 miles from coast to coast and border to border. Over the rockies on
i70 and i80 about 12 or so times too. Had two emergency stops with the
coach's anto-lock air brakes working at the max too. NEVER a single issue.
