Speaker 1: Today, we're taking a look at a two and one quarter inch long shackle strap. Now this shackle strap connects a double wide leaf spring to a rear hanger for single axle trailers or to an equalizer for multi axle trailers. It allows necessary pivot of the springs for an evenly distributed load between axles and a smooth ride for the trailer. We're looking at a galvanized steel construction. It's a nice heavy duty design and corrosion resistant. This is ideal for use on boat and snowmobile trailers.
One shackle strap is included with this part number. Taking a measurement real quick of the length. Again I measured from center on center of the mouth hole, that's where we get the two and one quarter inch long measurement from. Edge to edge it measures about three and a half inches long. Overall width is an inch and a quarter and the bolt holes have a diameter of nine 16ths of an inch.
That's gonna do it for today's look at the two and one quarter inch long shackle strap.

I replaced both sides with new 3-leaf double eye springs, 4 shackle straps, 6 shackle bolts, 2 Dexter U-bolt plates, and 2 U-bolts. They were really easy to replace and I did it quickly. Looks great, gonna take her out soon.
The right part for the job. I love the way retailer has video describing the part with measurements. This works really great for them so that customers are not returning items because they ordered the wrong part but even better for me. Nothing worse then waiting for a part, finally getting it and finding you need to send it back and reorder another, then wait some more for the right part to arrive. This part was 1st sent using the USPS. It took 3 weeks for it to get delivered. Once I received the package, it was empty. It looked like someone had opened it and Stolen the parts. Justin and Carol sent me a new part Express mail through UPS at no additional cost to me. This was going above and beyond to satisfy your customer. I would recommend etrailer again and again. Shipping is a far cry from another company I will not mention, but at least you know you are getting the right part.
I have not been able to use parts as UPS lost one entire shipment, damaged another shipment and etrailer left some parts out of the replacement shipment. I want to replace all the items on my trailer together in one day.
Anyways, your company has been good about fixing the issues.
I hope UPS pays for the damage and lost shipments.
these galvanized shackles have a bur around each hole that required removal with a drill before the bolt would slide through. Not bad if you have t he tools however they are not going to work right outta the box.
The spring were excellent and a welcomed upgrade
I have been a repeat customer of etrailer. I like their service and good prices. I also like their depiction of items with measurements so you can tell exactly what you are getting. Few sites document as well as these people.
A simple purchase that fits exactly and matches the description on the etrailer website. Even though I am in the business and have my own wholesale accounts, etrailer is often as cheap or cheaper and the information on the website is excellent. I wish my own wholesalers did as well on their websites and were as rapid with their deliveries.

Could be a little heavier for my application (12,000 pound boat on trailer); but, I got what I ordered!
Ordered on a Thursday before 5pm. Paid 3 day shipping. Figured worst case Wednesday delivery with the holiday. Got Thursday which did me no good. Products are good service sucked this time.
Will serve the purpose but holes needed filing a bit for bolts to slide through
Excellent shackles galvanized corrosion resistant and stronger than regular steel
Although these were galvanized, the coating made the holes less than they were supposed to be, and had to be drilled out
Perfect; thanks
These are a little over galvanized takes some effort to seat
Priced less than competitors. I especially like your product videos and the ability to submit questions online. Thanks for the great service.
