Andrew D the Jolly Roger Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 (edited) Trying to figure out from this image, is this A) one continuous chain that wraps around the end of the sling bottom, or is it B) two separate pieces of chain, separately connected in the same general area?

One chain on each side back then. The “J” hook hooked to the vehicle being towed (swinging in the wind in this photo), then wrapped around the tow bar at the bottom as shown, then hooked at the top of the sling just outside of view in the photo. The excess chain that was left could either be hooked to the chain from the other side or back on itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Haigwood Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 You didn't ask but I found suitable chain at HB in the jewelry chain area, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew D the Jolly Roger Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 Nice! Here's what I use, much more worn to look the part.... ...and yes, the sling and the entire tow rig is completely scratchbuilt (took about a year...)
