id put at least 3 heavy duty swivels ,#2 chain ,make sure the pan is not wobbly .if you have a welder you can base plate and laminate ,i use all 1 3/4 for land now ,i used mostly 1 1/2s before ,then coyotes started moving in and destroying my traps ,now i go with all 1 3/4 as i find it a great universal trap for all critters im catching .all my 1 1/2s are used for water traps

Hmmmm, are you really sure this is the case?????

I can't even think of how many coyotes and cats I have taken with the Modified Duke 1.5's. Only thing that limits you is jaw spread and that is eliminated by showing them where YOU want them to step.

Oh, there were still those Duke's in the truck and the rest of them were froze under the ice on all those watersheds........
