Mine do the same, my bushings are shot, and the center suports are rusted out. These are terrible to drive on the street<BR> If you want to run them without a support I would recomend getting a spring bushing for the fixed eye of the spring. bolt this between the two sides of the shacle. Then when you hit the trail you can loosen the bolt that holds it, or tighten it for the road.<BR> <BR></B><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Thanks for the reply Paul. The bushings are all new. I'm not quite sure I understand what you are saying about the bushing idea. Can you elaborate?<P>------------------<BR><B>Jim Brink</B> - 1986 Std.
