where to get shackle bolts in melbourne?

Post by bad_religion_au »

building a new set of shackles and need the shackle bolts, greasable or not, really doesn't bother me. i know you can get them, cause the booty fab shackles i pulled from it have them (but the bushings were in so tight i had to bugger the thread to get it out.

it's for a 40 series if it matters.

I think Ironman suspension in Clayton sell them. Got greaseable ones for the Radier there and if they have stuff for my 4b, then yours should not be a problem :D

Ford told me the same about the Raider :? I think I paid $30 (included freight to my door in sydney overnight) from Ironman Suspension for the front set and a tad more for the rear set.

Just checked the Ironman website and yep they sell greasable shackles for just about anything including the 40 both pre 1980 and post 1980
