TUSK 1-1/4 Inch Hitch Receiver with 1/2" Recovery Shackle — 4,400 lb Capacity, Black Powder-Coated

The TUSK 1-1/4 inch hitch receiver with an integrated 1/2 inch recovery shackle is a compact, heavy-duty tow point designed to convert Class I and II receivers into a secure recovery and towing anchor.

Built to withstand tough conditions, the assembly includes a hitch pin and a corrosion-resistant finish to keep the connection reliable in daily use or off-road recovery situations.
