DESCRIPTION
Product Overview
- The D-Ring Shackle Mounts let you add professional-grade recovery anchors anywhere you can drill or weld. Forged from high-tensile steel and rated at 42,000 lbs break strength, these mounts turn your bumper, frame, or tractor bucket into a bombproof recovery point.
- The included heavy-duty backer plates are the difference between a solid mount and a torn bumper. They distribute pulling force across a wide area behind the mounting surface, preventing the bolts from pulling through under extreme loads. The 0.3" thick steel base plate and high-clearance lug ensure rattle-free, dependable connections. The bold red powder coat finish adds visibility and corrosion protection. If your truck didn’t come with recovery points, these are the ones you’ll install.
Key Features
- Forged from high-tensile steel to handle massive recovery forces. The 0.3" thick base plate won’t bend or deform under loads that would fold stamped-steel mounts.
- The included backer plates are the critical difference between a mount that holds and one that tears through your bumper. They spread force across the backside of the mounting surface, preventing the bolts from pulling through under extreme tension.
- Drill and bolt for a clean, reversible installation, or weld for a permanent mount. The thick steel base plate accepts either method. Professional installation recommended for weld-on.
- Galvanized undercoat with red powder coat top layer. The bright red finish isn’t just for looks — it makes your recovery points easy to locate in mud, snow, or low light.

FAQ
Q: Do I need to drill holes in my bumper to install these?
A: For bolt-on installation, yes — you’ll drill holes through the mounting surface and bolt through the backer plate on the other side. If drilling isn’t an option, these can be welded on by a professional fabricator. The bolt-on method is reversible;welding is permanent.
Q: How thick does my bumper need to be for these mounts?
A: The backer plates handle the load distribution — so even thinner factory bumpers can work with proper backing. For off-road bumpers (3/16" or thicker steel), the mounts are a direct fit. For thin factory sheet metal bumpers, consider welding or using a larger backer plate.
Q: Can I mount these on the front and rear?
A: Yes — most owners install one pair on the front bumper and another on the rear for complete recovery coverage. The 2-pack gives you one pair for a single location.
Q: Will the red powder coat hold up on a front-mounted recovery point?
A: The powder coat resists road debris, mud, and weather. The mounting face where shackles connect will show wear — this is cosmetic. The underlying galvanized coating continues to protect against rust.
Q: Need shackles and recovery gear for these mounts?
A: These mounts accept any standard 3/4" shackle — pair them with our 3/4" D-ring shackles with 70,000 lbs strength. For extraction, add a 1" x 30ft kinetic recovery rope and a winch line damper for safe recovery operations.

Verified buyerRunning between three rig sites every week, was burning through DEF in about 2 weeks. Getting 6 weeks per jug now. Regen lockouts used to cost me half a day in the field, that's done with.
Chris D.
Verified buyerGot four trucks on the ranch, did this one first to see how it'd go. Eight months in, no codes, pulls hay like she's new again. Other three are getting done before winter.
Travis M.
Verified buyerTowing the boat down to the Keys used to kill me at 11 mpg. Got 15.4 last trip, same boat, same route. Pipe looks stock from the outside, none of my buddies even noticed it's gone.
Mike R.
Verified buyerHauled my horses from Fort Worth up to Amarillo last month, got 17.8 empty on the way back. Was running around 13 before. Pulls a lot better up the grades too, didn't expect that part.
Jason T.
Verified buyerUsed to go into regen every 280 miles when I was loaded down, now I'm pushing 580 with no regen at all. EGTs run way cooler too pulling the skid steer. Wish I had done this sooner, honestly.
Brandon L.
Verified buyerBought it used and the previous guy had wiped the delete history clean. Got everything put back the right way, ran the protocol, passed smog first try. Truck finally drives like it should.

Fitment guaranteed or refundGot questions?
The stuff that keeps you up at night before you commit. Answered in plain talk by guys who actually wrench on these trucks.
A full mandrel-bent stainless DPF and CAT delete pipe, EGR block-off plates and gaskets, DEF delete components, all mounting hardware and clamps, and your preloaded tuner with the custom tune for your VIN. We don't ship anything you don't need, and we don't leave anything out that you do.
No. The custom tune disables the codes the deleted hardware would otherwise throw. Dash stays clean. If a real fault code pops up after install, call our line and a tech walks you through it. Usually it's a sensor that got unplugged during the wrench work, takes 5 minutes to sort out.
We pull your VIN before we ship. Engine, year, trim, cab config, all verified against the kit. If it doesn't fit your truck, you send it back and we either ship the right kit or refund you in full. Fitment is on us, not you. That's why we call it a fitment guarantee.
Most of our customers do. Average install is 2 to 4 hours with basic hand tools, sockets, ratchet, jack stands. You'll get the step-by-step install video emailed after purchase and a 24/7 phone line if you get stuck. If you can change your own oil, you can run our protocol.
Real custom files. Built in-house by guys who've been turning wrenches and writing tunes on Cummins, Duramax, and Powerstroke platforms for years. Every tune is dialed to your year, your engine, and how you actually drive the truck. No outsourced generic tunes pulled off a shared drive.
Once we've got the base files for your platform, dialing it in for your specific truck takes about 20 minutes. Charging $300 for that didn't sit right with us. We'd rather give you the better experience and earn the call when your buddy's truck needs help.
You call us. Real diesel techs, US-based, picking up the phone. We help with install troubleshooting, tune adjustments, fitment issues, codes, anything. We don't disappear after the sale, and the line doesn't go to voicemail. Phone number is at the bottom of every email and on every page of this site.
Yes. The custom tune is reversible, flash the stock file back through your tuner and the truck reads as factory again. The only thing that's permanent is the deleted hardware itself, but most buyers in the diesel community see a properly executed delete as a value-add, not a deduction. We can also ship the OEM-style reverse plates if you want to put the factory exhaust back on for resale.
Lifetime warranty on the stainless delete pipe, no rust-through, no cracks, ever. 2-year warranty on the EGR delete plates, gaskets, and hardware. If anything fails, we ship a replacement same day. The tuner itself carries the manufacturer warranty through EZ Lynk or HP Tuners.
Orders ship from Fort Worth within 1 to 2 business days. Free express shipping anywhere in the lower 48. Most orders land in 3 to 5 days. You'll get tracking the second it leaves the shop.
