This Prothane shackle bushing is listed for Chevrolet and GMC K and V series trucks, Blazers and Jimmys built from 1971 to 1987. On these trucks the shackle bushings carry a lot of weight and flex, and once they soften the suspension can move where it should not. It suits owners using their truck for towing, ranch work or trail runs who want a firmer feel.

Ask about fitment

Parts that usually go with it

  • An alignment after installing new arms or bushings.
  • Matching parts at the other end. Upgrading one side or one link and leaving worn parts elsewhere limits the improvement.
  • Install tools. Pressed-in bushings may need a press or a shop to fit them.
