One other thing I have been thinking about when I put it back on my truck, should I put a piece of inner tube between the axle and the bracket as a gasket/spacer/bushing type thing so this wear doesn't get worse... I'm planning to paint it all up nice before installing. And my sandblasting really dug out the corroded metal from the metal2metal from u-bolt bracket to axle so realized I should probably take some sort of action, what do you think?
