Interior Cargo D-shackles

[1leglance]

Ok so I am getting prepped for the Expo Trophy that is keeping me away from BorregoFest....
And I have way too much gear that must be stowed safety and securely like all good offroaders do...
So I am at Home Depot looking at a way to add more attachment points to my FJC when I see these cool little d-shackles...way neato they will match the ones I use for recovery on the outside.
So here are the steps and you can see pics at

1) use 10mm short socket on extension to remove bag holders
2) drill hole in 1 side of narrower bottom section of bag holder
3) THIS IS IMPORTANT ...put the bag holder on before you attach the d-shackle or the bolt won't fit
4) attach d-shackle and the use however you please

I hope this helps someone...
remember the original part is still plastic and won't take a ton of force

Great post, great write up. Nice, easy and cheap mod-the best kind. I see you have a PETT too.
