I need to replace the bushings for the rear shackles on my 27 TT. Anyone know where I can find some, what size they are supposed to be or do I need to have them made. I can’t find them in any of the catalogs.
Please and thanks!
Brad

Re: TT shackle Bushings.
Size: OD 1.00" ID 11/16" OAL 3.00". Best to confirm just to make sure, however.
I got my TT shackle bushings from Bronzebushings.com. Looking through their site I don't see the 3 inch length listed anymore, but I would imagine they would still make them if requested.
Hope this helps,
Rich C.

Re: TT shackle Bushings.
I would do as Rich says and order bronze bushings by size. A Google search may find more than one source.
