For people out there with the SRC front bumper: Where did you find D-rings to fit those massive cutouts? It looks like it takes a 1" diameter pin shaft but I haven't found any shackles with 1" pins that aren't ridiculously huge (to the point that they would swing back and hit my spring shackles). I guess it is nice to have the extra strenth of a bigger pin, but it is near impossible to find a good one. Any help would be appreciated.

I ended up using the 3/4" D rings, I couldnt find any 1" either. They wiggle around a bit but I dont hear any rattling.

My poor jeep doesnt even get to see daylight anymore, unless someone breaks in the garage, those D-rings are just fine.  I know what you are saying though, I'm paranoid of deadbeats stealing my stuff.

yea same here i have a emergency bag with a whole bunch of junk in it...i just keep them in there along with my breaker bar and lug nut sockets...i think its cheap insurance since if someone wanted to steal them it would take less than a min and no work at all so its cheap insurance...
this is random with my jeep i wish i could get vin number from a 76 cj and do the cj hood conversion and just claim that is a 76 so i wouldnt have to worrie about inspection...if that was the case i would just run open headers and do the 350 conversion
