Shops in lake/Mendocino county area?

[Korydogg]

so I bought some shackles for my front bumper but the pins are a hair to big for the holes. Do you guys know of a shop in the area that can either ream/drill out the holes or maybe put those pins on a lathe and turn them down a tad? ....or better yet, someone have their own stuff to do the work that'd be wiling to help me out?

Got measurements? What's the difference in size? The pins shouldn't be turned down as it would change the rating, but in all likelyhood the tabs on your bumper shouldn't be reamed either.

Stop by my shop and lets take a look. I'll PM you the address.

My suggestion would be to get two more shackles that fit the tabs on your bumper and throw the two you have in with the rest of your recovery gear. When you get into a serious recovery situation, you can never have too many shackles. The two larger ones can be used to attach snatch blocks to tree savers, winch lines to straps etc. Sooner or later, you will need them.

I don't think making the hole a little bigger would be much of an issue. They just barely don't fit so it's not like if be taking away a lot of material. I agree with not turning down the pins- but I'm just trying to find a solution.
