Handy as pocket on a shirt. Indusco weld on hooks on Amazon are hard to beat. 3 ton, $20ea. Look for “used” on Amazon. Might be warehouse dirty? Or not in original bag but certainly good enough to weld or use at a cost savings. Have recently got 1” weld on D-ring for $7.11 delivered.

Looks great. The reinforcement is important

If you're up to the welding, that's great. I opted for a pair of Ken's Bolt on Hooks. A couple holes, a couple bolts, and it's a done deal. I did mine out by the shed with a battery powered drill. For me it was the easy way out.

Im looking at ordering some of those tonight - going with the clevis mount on the bottom.

I did. Clevis in lower center of bucket inside. In retrospect, I could have mounted another on the back sandwiching the bucket with the same bolts but I didn’t.

Two of kens hooks and the clevis and hardware through 2 years of use so far with no problems. I also mounted them with a drill out in the driveway one evening.

He sells blems occasionally which I bought but his blems were a lot nicer than most good stuff out there. I couldn’t find the reason to cull them.
