Re: WTB "U" shackles--for G503
It might help mate if you post the spring packs they are going to.
With the change from 8/9 to 10/11, there is a different U bolt.
There is also a difference in GPW/MB- GPW having a flatter top with a raised F, MB (and bantam trailers?) having a more rounded off top with what i would call a faint seem on the flattened part.
Brent Mullins had some NOS GPW ones a while back?
Then there is getting the correct length long/tall nuts to worry about! (there were some on ebay last week from 'oneakers', or similar- AP truck salvage in Oklahoma)
Cheers,
Ian.

They're 'spring shackles'. Ron sells them.

I am sure there are 1000s of originals that people would be willing to sell.
I have at least two dozen, all worn out.
The replacements are excellent.
