I took a couple of lift hooks off one of my snap coupler plows.  Good thing I did - not much left of some of those bolts!  I decided to take all my other ones off to check as well.  They are all getting replaced.  I would hate to see if one of those bolts failed while going down the road.  Also switched out the bent over nails in the pins for proper roll pins.

Thought they had a bushing inside link that bolt pinched down on and it took the wear?

I've seen my share of carriage bolts just like that. Good idea to just replace them, especially on a plow.

I love those bent over nails too!

Steve, they do have a bushing but it's the bolt that seems to wear.
