I need to replace bushings and I am thing a good idea to replace shackles as well. In searching for the correct parts, I am seeing conflicting informaiton on the bushing part number.

I know this isn't what you asked......but I did what you're planning to do with new leafs and aal a couple months ago because I got a good deal on the aal.....it was absolutely horrible....aal seemed to ride rougher on new springs compared to worn out ones. Swapped everything right quick haha
