Warn shackle for hitch with 2 inch receiver

I'm looking for a used shackle like this or similiar:

I would buy new but really don't want to spend $50+ for something I will rarely use. I would rather spend around $25 or so for a used one.

Ebay has these often as a set for dirt cheap.
They may not be Warn, but nothing wrong with that.

All my present 3/4" shackles I have are not made by Warn, but have a hi load rating on them.

Get a 2" drawbar and a shackle, then just run the shackle bolt through the hole for the ball. Doesn't look as nice but will do the job for around $25.

Yeah doesnt have to be Warn go to tractor supply and look around they have alot of things like that, and Im thinking by the time you buy one from somebody for $25 with shipping it will be around $40-50.
