D Ring Shackle Pin Size??
I'm trying to find a D Ring that will fit the Lod Rear Bumper Gen II. I went to the same place to purchase the one's for my front Lod bumper but the one's they now carry won't fit the holes for the pin. I didn't realize there were different sizes. The one's that don't fit now are 3/4" shackles but the pin is slightly larger than 3/4" and won't fit through the hole in the bumper.

5/8" D-Rings are probably needed. The Mopar rear originally had 5/8" hole mounts but they finally changed to the 3/4"
Don't drill them out it will weaken the mount point just order a set of 5/8" shackles.

Also if the mountpoints are thinner than the fronts like on mine a set of ball cock washers from Lowes or Home Depot (In the plumbing area) cut down work great to keep them from rattling around.
