RileyHow do you determine the size of a clevis shackle?
I like to use
https://www.westechrigging.com for my shackles. Also, the Columbus McKinnor and Crosby website will have lots of info.

Those big shackles are expensive. I bet the 35 tons run in the $400 to $500 range. 55 ton over $1,000 (for quality American made units).
When you’re dealing with that kind of weight you don’t want to get cheap Chinese junk from Harbor Freight..
