Located some great grab hooks for my BX last weekend that had hook/clevis mount. Ken at boltonhooks literally hooked me up.

What do you use the clevis for?

Looks good! I'm curious about the clevis hooks too. I have welded hooks on my bucket and they are real handy!!!

**** I don't know guys this is my first tractor. Stuff is always falling off my truck or trailer so I figured how could I go wrong providing something to hook a chain too. I only have 7 hrs on the BX so far but used them with my forks to haul a pool on a pallet to the barn...and nothing fell off...yet.

Looks great Mega :thumbsup:
The clevis mount/shackle provides a great place to attach ropes or slings to, it's not generally recommended to use the grab hooks for those since they could cut through them. We do offer the hooks without them also.

That makes sense...I've only used a chain to lift stuff. I guess I'd have to put the sling ends through the chain between the hooks.
