Hey, I just noticed something. You've got extra bolts in your shackles, and they're not necessary and they're too short. They're making the shackles go like this: \ / when they should be like this | |.

I was planning on putting a metal sleeve to make them parallel. Would that make them any more sturdy? I use them for my come-along to crank the car back into the garage  . I got tired of pushing haha

I looked right past that. Those lower bolts should come out. They serve no purpose.
