Installed MorRyde HD Shackles and Wet Bolt Kit

I pulled my brake drums and inspected my brakes, packed the bearings and replaced the grease seals, balanced the tires and installed the MorRyde HD Shackles and Wet Bolt Kit.

The brakes looked fine, one grease seal was starting to leak a little grease, and one dust cap was not fully seated causing some grease to sling out on the inside of the rim.

When removing the stock shackles and stock wet bolts, I found the Trail Air Center Suspension unit had Bronze Bushings in it but the springs have plastic bushings on both ends.
Sure does not make much sense to have a Bolt with a grease fitting and a plastic bushing.

I replaced the Plastic Bushings in the springs with the Bronze Bushings that came with the MorRyde kit.
