M170 tailgate chains

Post by bl5211a »

Hi, my m170 tailgate chains have two different hooks. One chain has a hook that is pointed, and the other has a hook that is blunt . Is that normal , or should both hooks be the same ?

Thanks , I'm thinking blunt is correct .

Do you have an extra original chain and hook so I can match both mine to be the same .
