I know that the bushings or bearings kind of need replacing, as it's sqeaked before, but my mechanic says I need new shackle brackets. Where can I order them?

Shackle brackets? I call that thing a frame. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> Never heard of factory bushings squeaking...unless they are just totally worn out. If you have urethane bushing they will need to be greased once in a while to keep them from making noise.

I'm sorry - shackle brackets? Have him top off the blinker fluid, too.
If he's talking about shackle bushings, then fine. Also, if he's talking about the shackles themselves, fine. But I don't know of any brackets on my Trooper, or anything that could need replacing. Do you have a pic?

maybe he means shackle bushings, he's a NY mechanic who doesn't work on troopers much. I doubt he's trying to screw me since I'm the one that has to find the item online and order it.

Look - take the ribbing in stride. We're not trying to laugh at you or him, we're trying to get at what ya need. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> The best thing you can try to do is to take a picture of the needed part and post it here. - Mike

trust me, I'm not put off by some good natured humor :p
the picture is a bit of a problem, I'm in tennessee and the trooper is in NY. I'll email the mechanics wife and see if I can get some clarification.
