<BR>Cute trick... about using the bushings (with metal center sleeve) as a brace for the shackles. <P>On my truck I never felt I needed it. I was quite happy (even on the street) using the tall unbraced shackles. <P>Jim, you using poly bushings? That might stiffen things up a little bit for you.<P>Yo Jimmy Tom... I heard about your new ride. Too fun!<P>------------------<BR><B>Scott Wilson</B><BR><A HREF="http://staff.4x4wire.com/swilson/" TARGET=_blank>88 4Runner</A>
