    I have found a local shop that will make up some M16x1.5 couplings/threaded extensions so that our tow eyes will be long enough to be useful but can also remain stock and undamaged for show and go purposes.

    They will probably cost somewhere in the $50-$75 range but I need a head count to know how many we can make in the first production run.

    Obviously, the more that can be made in one run, the cheaper they will be.

    Please let me know by posting to this thread if you would be interested in this adapter.

    See thread below for more info:

    Moy and Ferrariguy-

    I only have one left from the second production run so Moy gets this one. (Check your PM, Moy)

    I should have another run done in a week or so for you, Ferrariguy.

    Anyone else who wants one from the 3rd run, please post here or send me a PM.

    Many thanks to everyone who has supported this project!

    I received my package today and I'm very pleased with the tow strap and electrical connector.
    Both pieces are very high quality. I think you did I a great job. I just hope I never have to use either.......

    Well done!

    Thanks for your hard work on this.

    Glad you both are pleased!

    The tow strap I sent Ron is not out there for sale yet, but if you want info on it, please send me a PM. Basically, it is a #8000 rated strap that threads into the tow eye receiver and negates the need to use, and possibly bend, your tow eye.

    Thanks to everyone for their support of these projects!
