Can anyone tell me what size shackle bolts an 88 suburban has. Ive looked everywhere and have found multiple sizes with no definitive answer. Thank you
 
Front shackles or rear?....

I know the rears I used on my '82 K2500 were 9/16 x 5-1/2",should be the same on your Burb ,but check the length..

Front ones I have never replaced,I know the factory ones were 7/16" but I dont know how long they are...
 
For front and rear. I just want to have replacement on hand to help this go as smooth as possible. Also its a 1/2 ton so I'm sure they're smaller than the 2500 sizes.
 
I'm pretty sure all the rear shackle bolts are the same 9/16" ones up to 1 ton...the K30's may have 5/8" bolts in the rears...the front spring "eyes" have 5/8" bolts too on all 4x4's (square body ones)..in case your taking the springs right off..
