My leaf spring bushings in the 1990 HZJ73 are totally shot so I ordered some and when I took the first shackle apart to replace the bushings, I realized the ones I got (black rubber ones) weren't right for the Old Man Emu shackle with greaseable pins that were on my cruiser. My Greaseable Pins were also in pretty bad shape, so I ordered all-new Old Man Emu anti-inversion shackles and pin kits, and Old Man Emu bushings.
Fast forward to today and I take everything apart again only to find that the anti-inversion shackles that came are at least an inch shorter than my current ones, and the pins are slightly smaller in diameter so I can't even use the pins with my current shackle sides (at the threading area it's 9mm instead of the 11mm ones on my cruiser).
I'm looking now trying to find what Old Man Emu shackles are currently on my vehicle, and I can't seem to find a match. Below you can see pictures of everything, the ones I'm looking for are on the left.
If you made it to the end of that long-winded explanation, thank you!
