Has anyone else run into this same problem? I have ordered shackles from two suppliers (LMC and American Classic) and both sets had problems...LMC's threaded pins were an inch short, not treaded on either end and held together by one carrage bolt through the center of the shackle. The shackle was also too wide to fit through the mount. American Classic was also too wide but the pin was correct. On LMC's behalf, they did try to see if any of the kits in stock had the correct pin and did a partial refund. I am reusing my old ones and doubt if I will replace them now with the springs back on. My major concern is now with the front springs and running into the same problem. Short of buying complete springs is there a supplier that I can get all the pieces that will fit?

Use a big enough catapult and even pigs can fly...remember nothing is impossible, impractical yes, but never impossible.
