I don't mean to sound simple, but I found that my local Shopper's Supply (Tractor or farm Supply store) had shackles hanging on a hook, they are 3/8" steel and 3-1/8" center to center on 9/16" holes and 1-1/4" wide. 2 pair in a package for $8.99 and they were 75% off so, 2 bucks and change for two shackles?
