The Factor 55 FlatLink XTV Winch Shackle Mount replaces a conventional winch hook with a stronger shackle or D-ring connection for ATV and UTV recovery applications. Designed for improved clearance and recovery performance, the FlatLink XTV folds neatly into the fairlead when not in use and provides a better approach angle than the ProLink XTV. Its compact design is suitable for demanding off-road, search-and-rescue, and professional recovery environments.
The FlatLink XTV is compatible with steel or synthetic winch lines up to 5/16 inch in diameter and does not require rope splicing. Installation is quick and straightforward, using a strong aerospace-grade double-shear titanium pin and snap ring. The yellow powder-coated finish provides a durable protective surface while adding visibility to the front of the vehicle.
Constructed from 6061 aluminum, the Factor 55 FlatLink XTV combines strength with a lightweight design. EPDM rubber guards help protect alloy fairleads, reduce rattling, and remain securely attached with four barbed tips. The mount is engineered to work with compatible winch fairlead setups and offers a clean, integrated alternative to a standard hook. Part Number 00070-03 is a practical upgrade for ATV and UTV owners seeking a durable, easy-to-install winch connection.
