Hello All,
It finally stopped raining long enough to climb under the 5er to check out the shackles. I have two that showed some wear. I just ordered the replacement kit from Dexter, $121.80 with freight.
For this cost it's worth the money & time to replace. I heard too many horror stories about them breaking on a trip somewhere.
Thanks to all who contributed to this thread. You opened up a lot of eyes.
Bill
