bolted a couple of hooks onto my bucket

is that a piece of reinforcing steel that u welded on? and where did u get the bolt on hooks?

 

[JohnnyDark]

the reinforcing plate was on the bucket. i got the hooks from northern tool for 6.99 each. they have a stamped rating of 10k.

You'll get a lot of use out of those hooks, keep some chain handy.

Nice hardware - socket head cap screws.
Here is a pic of the hooks I attached from the local surplus shop.

good idea with the plate on the backside. much better than washers. i was lucky in that there was a huge reinforced plate on the top of my bucket. i used hardened washers on the inside, nylocks, and grade bolts.

What did they cost ... like $6.95 each!!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif .. Scozz

was wondering? as long as the reenforcing plates were already welded on, why did you not just weld the hooks on? that seems like a lot of steel to drill through /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
