2wd leaf shackle bushings
Hey everybody, looking for a little bit of help. I have a 71 gmc with G70 code rear leaf suspension. I was able to find the bushings for the leaf spring itself, but i'm not sure if i need the same size for the upper shackle bushings. Anyone know if the shackle bushings are the same size as the leaf eye bushings? Any help would be appreciated.

Re: 2wd leaf shackle bushings
Whoops, I meant lower shackle bushings, obviously the uppers are shared with the leaf. C'mon guys somebody must know something. In general are shackle bushings the same as the leaf eye bushings?

Re: 2wd leaf shackle bushings
I have the same suspension code (G70). I replaced my bushings three years ago. I just went to NAPA and was able to get the parts I needed.

Re: 2wd leaf shackle bushings
Well just in case anyone is searching for an answer as I was, the shackle bushings are NOT the same as the leaf bushings lol. As was stated before in this thread though, i'm sure you could find them through a good local parts counter or spring shop. I'm just a cheap bastard and try and find things on the ol' interweb.
