2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Shackles?

[JerryB]

I was watching one of those shows with Sam Melnamo (sp?) in it, where they were spotlighting some replacement shackles for the rear suspension on pickup trucks. They were cushioned or spring loaded somehow, and were supposed to take the jolt out of highway expansion joints, and the like, yet not reduce payload capacity.

Naturally, as soon as I saw them, I forgot who makes them, or where I could find them. Does anyone know who makes them, or could supply a website link.



Thanks



Jerry
