HitchLink Pro 2.5 Hitch Receiver Shackle Point - Gray Factor 55

The Factor 55 HitchLink Pro 2.5 converts a Class V 2.5-inch receiver into a dedicated recovery point — no reducing adapter needed. Slide it into the receiver opening and lock it with a hitch pin (not included). That's the whole setup.

We like this piece because the engineering is deliberate. The oversized smooth corner radius reduces stress on synthetic soft shackles up to 1/2-inch, which extends their service life. The internal cylindrical surface properly supports steel screw pin shackles — either 3/4-inch (7/8-inch pin) or 7/8-inch (1-inch pin). These aren't afterthoughts; they're what separates this from a generic D-ring adapter.

The cross-drilled body means you can run it in any 90-degree orientation, so rigging angle isn't a constraint. Working load rating is 18,000 lbs, and destructive testing validated breaking strength at 61,000 lbs. The body is CNC-machined 6061 aluminum with a Mil-Spec hard anodized gunmetal gray finish — corrosion resistant and built to take abuse.

Engineered, tested, and manufactured in the USA. If your recovery setup runs through a 2.5-inch receiver, this is the anchor point worth having.
