Shackles
Well i guess it took a couple months to break in.
I installed my lift a couple months back and now my right rear shackle is starting to pop and creak all the time.
I tried spraying some wd40 up there but guess it couldnt get all the way thru.
I need some suggestions of some greasable shackles at a good price that are the same size as the stock shackles.
Thanks

I have the 1.5 inch Rustys that are greasable, but the numbskulls who designed the put the zerk fitting in a bad spot. It is impossible to lube them without buying the 90 degree attachment for the grease gun.

You can also buy greasable bolts as well.Not sure how they would work on th upper one but they would work great on the lower ones.
