    Probably over thinking this like I do everything else but, is regular old cold rolled steel okay for making a set of shackles? Standard length or maybe just a tad longer than stock. I'll measure my con-ferr parts to get the thickness of the steel.

    Just planning for the near future. Thanks.

    Yes, cold roll or hot rolled steel is fine!
