    I have a 4 or so foot long chain I want to hang from my truck I was thinking get two shackles to connect it under the front of my bumper or under the back but the back would be pointless. yes, it's mostly for looks. Any ideas or pictures/threads?

    not sure what kinda look a chain is gonna achieve, but you could get a duplicate or cut it in two and put it on the sides. I see many beater trucks around here with chains as steps for door entry.

    Guys out here loop chains around either their frame or some kind of hanger underneath to create a recovery point. Me personally, I'd do something safer and less obtrusive.

    It's also turned into an aesthetic thing out here... like a tough-guy truck nuts (no offense OP)

    Do it Oklahoma dust bowl style and just attach it to the back and let it drag on the ground. Then you'll REALLY get people to notice you. If they don't see you, they'll hear you!
