5/8 or 7/8 shackle you want. I believe, but someone correct me if I'm wrong

I think most are 3/4" or 7/8" but they come in all sizes from very small to quite large. Those 2 are what you find most for recovery points on bumpers measure to see what size you need.

Check a local farm store. They should have what you need.

as Fred said, they usually are 3/4 or 7/8. Make sure what diameter the holes are drilled on your bumper. 7/8 inch holes use 3/4 shackles, and the 7/8 shackles would use 1 inch holes.

I have 7/8 shackles on my bumper and the holes are drilled to 1 inch

I prefer 3/4" shackles but my bumper from Nates4x4 has 1" holes for 7/8" shackle.
