Started installing the Dri Diff kit, and found that the Prothane shackle bushings have an inside diameter that is about .080" bigger than the .500" Dr Diff shackle studs, and the busihing kit did not come with inner sleeves, and the bushings in the kit had to be turned down to fit the shackle tube.

Does anyone know who might make a shackle bushing kit that comes with inner sleeves that will fit the 1" spring eye, and the 7/8" shackle tube ?
 
Try Feel Firm or PST. I used Feel Firm, but do not remember if it had a sleeve. Good Luck
 
I would call Dr Diff I would think Cass would have everything to make his kits work .
 
I bought the prothane 4-801-bl. They are still in the box but I can measure when I get home. I did the research about the size earlier for them to fit in super stock springs and Dr diff. I have not tried them yet so I cannot promise fit. When I get home I will check as I just got my Dr. diff shackles yesterday.
 
Ordered the 7/8" OD bushings that presse in the the shackle bracket tube. Cannot seem to find the 1" OD x 1/2" ID bushing that presses into the rear leaf spring eye. Anyone have any ideas ?
 
We may be different in our applications. The 4-801-bl fit the ss leaf springs but not the shackle mounts. The bushing I need is .850 od and .500 id.

A little lube and some persuasion and we are in business. I Apologize for hijacking the thread. In the beginning I thought we were looking for the same thing.
