Front Rear Shackle Frame Bushing
« on: September 27, 2015, 04:35:46 pm »
Does anyone know what bushings are using in the shackle hangar? I'm looking for the bushing for this part..



Is it the same as the leaf spring?

I have bushings. I plan to pull everything off the frame and redo the bushings and beef up the shackles.
