I used heat, a suitable size of long bolt for the hole size, and heat. Worked out very well. I couldn't tell you which ones are original and which ones I fabricated on my carrier.

Jordan: the critical measurement is the centre- to-centre spacing of the holes. It looks like 2 -5/8" in your case. Perhaps you can comfirm: may have a few in stock. .. Brian

Try your local Marine Chandlers, they should have the size you need and stainless so no rust.

If nothing closer works out this might be a source - but be sure you are willing to pay the shipping price:

Default Footman loops

Just found these on eBay, Ohio based company, might be worth a call or message.
It won't let me post link, but item number is 122031901119, UK eBay if that makes a difference. Hope it helps some.

"Ten surplus Footman Loops as used on many production jeep vehicles. 2 1/8" hole spacing, correct for all military and civilian jeeps. Finished in Olive Drab. We acquired these, along with much other NOS hardware in the late 1980s during the liquidation of Wolk's Surplus on Clay Ave in Detroit. These are original surplus items. You are buying 10 Footman Loops.

USD $25.00 for ten.
Shipping calculations on the seller's auction site are "nuts" ... USD $35.95 flat rate USPS box to Canada ...
