Energy Suspension sent us all of the right outside diameter size bushings that we needed. The problem now is that the inside diameter of the shackle bushings are too big for the stock size bolts. Our options are to ream out the bushing (E.S. tech said that was a bad idea), grind down the sleeve, or find the right size old style shackle bolts that have the step down (which I need anyways and I can't find them). If anyone know where I can find the old style shackle bolts please let me know.
