Two winters ago I replaced the springs on my Missouri convertible. I usually dont replace the shackles, just the bushings and springs. On this car though my shackle bolts snapped. I called ESPO and Laura was quick to help, or so she thought. The shackle they had been selling as a replacement for Fuselage C bodies was straight like a B body shackle , it had no offset.
Laura at ESPO was very perplexed at the shackle type, hasnt seen one before like this, but these are all I know.
It took a while for me to get her the used bad shackles but last fall she had requested I send her my used shackles as ESPO would like to reproduce these. Of course, expense will be an issue and the determining factor if they do go through with the endeavor. I hope they do
I bought my replacement shackles from Murray. He had to go through several to get me a couple good ones since they all kept snapping snapping as he tried to loosen the nuts.
Please, support ESPO........
