Are the 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton cab mount shackles interchangeable?
Might someone have a pic of a 1/2 ton shackle?
Thanks

The 3100 shackle has an offset bolt pattern, here is a picture of the 3600 type. I do not have a picture of the offset or cabover (unique style)but they are shown in the 1947-54 Factory Assembly manual. http://community.webshots.com/photo/2275285170102454676BEQvTZ

Is it about 2 1/4?
