4WD Shackles and Fixed Pins are often overlooked when upgrading the suspension of a 4WD.
A SuperPro 4x4 Greasable Shackle and Bushing upgrade will leave the rear end of your 4WD handling just about anything you can throw at it!
Original shackles and fixed pins corrode and destroy the bushings and it is the leaf spring bushings that stabilise the movement of the rear axle.
Worn or inferior bushes in this area will cause the solid rear axle to move and impart rear end passive steer to the vehicle leading to the vehicle 'wandering' all over the road and be unstable under heavy braking.
This can be especially noticeable carrying a load or towing a boat or caravan. By fitting the complete package of Greasable Shackles, Fixed Pins and Bush Kit the rear end of any 4WD will handle just about anything that is throw at it!
