Front shackle bushing - 10/03/20 02:49 PM
We powder coated my sons Ramcharger frame. Now we are having a hard time locating the shackle bushing for the rear of the front leaf spring. Any ideas here? Looking for a stock replacement type part. Trying to stay away from polyurethane universal type stuff if possible.

Browsing on RCC a bit it seems that they use the same bushing as the leaf spring eye.
https://ramchargercentral.com/vehicle-help/front-shackle-holes-in-the-frame-bushings/They mention the discontinued mopar part no. is 2953700 and the NAPA replacement is 2746474
Although many recommend the heavy duty replacement from a member over there.

I used those front shackle kit myself and couldn't be happier.
I also used his his rear hangers which allowed me to use a 56" long spring from a 1 ton 1989 Diesel Suburban (two stage springs), completely removing the rear block and the truck is sitting nice now.
