What colour Shackles?

[Silver-Bolt]

Serious question, why leave them off? That's just something else to pack/dig out of the back of the truck especially if you're stuck and need to use them? Also, I'll have the capable bumper, baby shackles are pretty much permanently installed ... does that get me head of the line at Starbucks?

You look like a poser and people/shitbags steal them.

Also they can get crusty from sitting out in the weather and be a bastard to get off when you really need them.

I went with same as body color. Also did the Bronco lettering the same. Found the Eruption Green paint at Touch-Up Direct.

Even the guides at Off Rodeo made fun of dudes who drove around with their shackles hanging out...

Don't be, That Guy.

Ok Bronco peeps. I respect your opinion, so much so I'm basically copying many of your winch mount ideas.

So I come to you asking for another opinion - colours.

I have a cyber orange 2-door WT. What colour shackles would you get? The reason I ask is because, as my wife has told me many times, I have no sense of style!

Thanks for your opinions.

chose the Orange ones as opposed to Yellow - matter of choice but I didn't want to try and match exactly

I could make a highly inappropriate comment here, but I'll take the high road.

And for the comment above regarding stealing them - You can buy ones that "lock" on with a key. That's what I have, for that exact concern. I know it's not a silver bullet, but usually a thief wants something quick and easy to steal.

So, it’s OK to leave them on?

Unlike in real life, where piercing holes will eventually close up after removing jewelry, Bronco nipple rings are not intended to remain installed 24/7.

More seriously, hard shackles are functional devices, used only when necessary during vehicle recoveries, and they need to be both available and in good condition when used to prevent damage to synthetic ropes and soft shackles. Hard shackles are typically stored for safe keeping to prevent theft, corrosion, and damage from flying debris while driving on and off road.
