3 more of the old bushing

I hope you plan on getting rid of those rear shackles. I can already see the PO installed the incorrect bushings in the rearward spring eyes. Those bushings should have a wider shoulder protruding outward. The ones you have in there are for the frame shackles as they have a narrower shoulder.

Dude - Call Rocky Mountain and tell her you have a Skyjacker lift, your year and I guarantee she'll finish your sentence for you...

I'm not showing the Daystar number on Summit. Maybe try another dealer?

Why not get the ORD HD shackle kit instead?

Did you see the shackles he has right now?

Ok, looks like 88-91 (mines an 89 blazer) uses the 3-2130 bushing kit and those do fit superlift springs. All other years down to 71 list a 3-2105 (i'm assuming stock springs) or a 3-2112 listed for aftermarket springs with the exception of Superlift and Skyjacker.

This picture would be good incentive to me to get the ORD kit:

Keep in mind that your kit number also uses the larger 1/2" bolts, not the 7/16" like the older ones do.

Thats what I need has the bushings I need and the shackles I need all in one spot and has the exact size I need

 

[NV_K5]

He gets the right bushings and I'd run the hell out of those shackles: if it aint broke, you know.

Besides - I'd be more worried about what is under the burlap in that picture.

This is true, but why not upgrade bolt sizing. Hell, my front springs use 9/16" bolts at both ends now.

How bad and quickly do you need them?

I have here at home, brand spanking new ORD HD greasable shackle kit, complete with the front bushings to fit Superlift or Skyjacker springs. I was saving them for my K30 but if you need them sooner, I can let them go.

 

[stephan.laun]

Well I want to start driving this truck again daily to keep miles down on my 06 Ram so sooner the better.

 

[thatK30guy]

Since you're about an hour away, we could meet where? Salina?

 

[stephan.laun]

Just tell me when where in Salina and how much

 

[thatK30guy]

Taking this to PM's now as I can't post a price in the Garage. I've gotten in "trouble" for this before.

 

[NV_K5]

That was quite the sales buildup - I'll have to remember that.
