Fantastic Truck Accessory!
This clevis is well made with nice details including a retaining clip so that the pin does not inadvertently unscrew while driving. The finish looks great, and the added detail of the red plastic trim piece not only looks cool, but should protect your strap. I highly recommend!

Excellent Product & Customer Service
There are lots of these shackle hitches out there. I ordered from MotorMic because they had excellent presentation and descriptions of their product and an excellent website. It shows the seller put a lot of thought into their marketing. I received the hitch quickly, even without Prime, but it was missing the hitch pin and keeper pin. I contacted the seller thru Amazon, received a prompt, courteous reply, and received the missing items within (2) days. Very impressive!! The hitch is machined from SOLID steel and has a heavy protective coating on all parts. I will use zip ties to ensure the red shackle protector does not fall off. I do like the shackle pin keeper snap ring - A nice inclusion. Yes, everything is MADE IN China, but at least they don't allude to made in USA in their name, as many others like to do, to deceive the buyer. Overall, an excellent product with fantastic customer service.

Solid quality. I have 2.
Just installed a second one of these on my 4runner. Great product. I’ve had one on my fj for a year or so. No corrosion or paint coming off. Lots of dust and mud abuse and the rubber cap has kept the lock working. Had to take it out on the trail to switch to another vehicle with no towing point and worked perfectly. I notice they now include a little spring clamp to make sure the D-ring does not backout and unscrew. That’s a good touch. You don’t want to lose that. The old version did not come with that (zip tie through the d-ring bolt eye and then through the d-ring is a little trick to make sure you don’t lose it on the old version).

Function, look, and the hitch pin with the lock is a strong value in itself.
Just got this and I LOvE it!! 💗It is heavy, Meaty, and the lock that it comes with is very effective. Don’t mind the zip ties all over it, my four-year-old helped me with the install. I didn’t have the heart to remove them. But with or without the zip ties, this is a strong piece to have on the trail. I intend to use it as a hitch cover until I actually need it, plus it has an incredibly strong look. I am glad I got this instead of a standard hitch cover. Very functional.

Solid D-Ring receiver with a great but tricky lock system
1st Impression: Overall I do like the product; it looks good, it seems very sturdy & the locking mechanism was well thought out. However, the product's box was absolutely mutilated upon arrival.Installation: Since the D-ring was loose, the additional rubber washers needed to be installed ( nice touch that they were included), but they were difficult to get into proper alignmemt. I really like the lock mechanism, but it is quite difficult to use & I'm left with the feeling of wondering if its on properly or going to end up on the street or trail somewhere.Fit: I've got a factory installed 2" on a 2019 Tacoma, so I've got a very standard 2" receiver. When installed & locked, it has a lot of play & wiggle. I will probably remedy that by adding some weather stripping to it so I don't hear it constantly.Verdict: solid product (I really like the lock & pray I don't lose it) with some idiosyncrasies, but I guess once you figure them out & can either deal with some noise, or add something to eliminate the rattling, you should be all good!

Awesome Shackle/Receiver
This is a great shackle hitch receiver! The quality is excellent and it has a lock to keep the thieves from steeling it off of my truck, I'm going to purchase another one for a gift since it's such a great value.What I like:Strong SchackleSuper heavy duty receiver that will probably never break and you can rotate it 90 degrees if neededGreat Locking mechanism - don't lose your keyImprovements:A set screw on the shackle would be nice so that it doesn't come un-screwed on you accidentally
