I am after some front shackles and pins for my 1980 BJ40 Cruiser.
I have the springs and shocks.
Cheers

Why not just replace the bushes in the OME springs you have to suit the smaller diameter pins you already have?

Re: WTB Old Man Emu Shackles and Pins
I have not been able to find any bushes that will fit the spring eye and has a 15mm ID.
So - I guess I am after a shackle set up with the two different pin diameters...
Forgot about 4wdbits.. cheers for the link..
Those prices are way cheaper than the new OME quotes I got..

I've been though this a couple of times before and I reckon changing the spring bushes are you best bet.
If you go with the bigger fixed pins they wont fit your factory pin mounts (different sizes).
