    I ended up buying universal shackles that gives multiple lengths. Taking my leaf on Monday to get re-arched and I’ll grab bushings when I’m there.
    Just undercoated the rear wheelwells and the next project is to clean and undercoat the area around the gas tank and leafs.
    Been thinking about the venting system for a new fuel cell installation

    Are yhe shackles the ones that are flat steel and have 4 holes in each one if so those are not good to use they cause alot of sway and realy ruin the handling
