When people make the sterling style nail swivels the generally make a longer shank j hook to help with grass getting wrapped up.

Myself I prefer the jc conner rod swivels. Don’t have to make them and less welding to finish them. They also have a standard length j hook but I’ve never had a problem of grass clogging them up and keeping them from working.


Anyone that owns a gun and votes democrat deserves to have there gun taken, cause they truly are too stupid to own a gun.

Figured out a way to make them more round in the bend like the sterlings and I prefer these...
