Boughtons used to make them in varius sizes. All tested by Hall Bros who were our wire rope suppliers

I kept one in the engine spud pan ready for work until went to use it one day and there it was gone...

I have seen them made from old half shafts.

Geoff Gilbert has a drawing of a similar 'S' hook in his Thrashing book. Get one made to that drawing Mike.

Speaking from experience, bow or dee shackles are safer.
