Like the subject says the left rear shackle rotted out on my truck. Looked around the net but everything says it doesn't fit. There has to be one being made out there. Any one have some info on this. I can get my hands on used easy just don't want to put one on that is already half gone.

The actual shackle or the bracket riveted to the frame?

Either way you'll need to know what size bolts are in there, could be 1/2", 5/8", or possibly 3/4"

I've modified F-150 parts for one truck and ranger shackles for another.

rence should be bolt hole size. Buy the 1/2 inch one and drill the hole to 5/8 or 3/4, which are your only options
