Not experienced, but I thought this design looks interesting. Curious for thoughts.

I have this one - Gear America. Used it a couple of times to fell and “recover” some “widowmaker” dead trees.

I have this one I like it because of how rounded and smooth it is. Less stress and wear on soft shackles.

I’ve had my Warn 2” shackle receiver mount for almost 26 years now - still does the job admirably. I’m almost sure 26 years ago it was still made in the US as well…

I got this one... pulls fine, adds a bit of bumper protection, and provides a small step.

Awesome! Would you mind posting a picture so we can see how it looks on a Rivian?

Not sure I would trust that as a recovery point, it does not look like they have tested and rated it for work or failure loads.

On their website they list the rating for the shackle but not this piece.
