rear shackle/hanger bushing question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Puglia10 · 11-17-2010, 09:06 PM

Not sure if I have the shackle/bushing terminology right,, but I'm replacing the bushings on all my suspension and have found/bought every one including the one where the leaf spring in the front, and where it mounts to in the rear (to the shackle?) But NOT to where what holds the leaf spring attaches to the frame, the big round part of the shackle that attaches to the hanger I think? Where could I find that? Sorry for the terrible explanation

If you are going to drop the truck at all the new shackle will have a new bushing in it already.

Depending on your avail budget to purchase you might just buy an Energy Suspension Master kit...I think the number is 3.1108

i am dropping the truck but with a flip kit, not shackles.
just wondering if i can find this bushing by itself, or if i should just buy the whole shackle IF anyone knows if the bushing comes with it as pictured?> http://www.classicparts.com/1973-91-...info/74%2D044/
thanks
