Leaf spring issue

[nocovaliant]

Hey all!
I bought “heavy duty” leaf springs on EBay for my 66 Valiant. The rear eye opening is 1”. The hole on the shackle hanger is 7/8”.
What do I need to do here?
Using poly bushings if possible.
Any help or direction would be appreciated.

Yes, if this is for the rear shackles, see the above post.

Next question
Where can I find stock style shackles.
I have already bought the Classic Industies shackle kits with the bigger bolts. Can’t return at this point.

No they are not there. I thought they were, but I guess I was mistaken.

Thanks Prof, but I’m looking for the shackles.

Those ARE the shackles.

Do you perchance mean the front spring hangers?

Sorry, my bad.
Should have checked the link instead of just the title. That is what I’m looking for.
Thank you sir.
On order now.
