If it's the factory shackle you will want to get those nasty things outta there! If you haven't done so already, then replace them with some good quality Indy4x shackles. My originals were all rusted and corroded and took hours to remove.

I soaked them in PB Buster, then wailed on them with a hammer, then my Dad and I finally got the factory shackles removed after a couple of hours of attacking them with a big pry-bar. If there is an easier way to remove shackles and bolts then I would LOVE to know what that is!
