Lowering Shakle
I’m trying to find this particular part for my Custom Ford F-150 2008. It’s a shakle I assume but it’s not a ford part from what I’m told. It has my truck squeaking because the bushings are busted. I can’t find it anywhere. It has the number 4531 in the side of it.
Are you just trying to replace the bushing or the shackle all together? The shackle itself isn't too expensive and can be found on sites like american trucks. I have one on my truck and it was like $60-70 and gives me a 1-2" drop. If you're looking for just the bushing it might be difficult.
If you just need the bushings you can pull a shackle, measure the bushings and go to someplace like Precision Urethane and order yourself some new bushings. Pop the old ones back in until they come. There's also a good chance the bushing size is the same as the stock bushings. That's been my experience 9 times out of 10.
If you ever get over here toward West Ga. I have a set of 1-2 inch drop shackles new in the box sitting in the garage.

If you measure from bolt center to bolt center on yours and and I'll measure these. Just to make sure they have the same drop. Those you have could be 1-2 or 2-3 inch drop. I'll measure mine later today and PM you.
