I just received my new HD Shackle Hangers. These things are Milled out a a solid block of steel and also have 3 mounting points instead of 2 like the originals. The fronts use an existing hole the rear a hole has to be drilled and a threaded insert welded in.
There is a comparison shot between the HD and Stock shackle hangers. They can be ordered from Crabtree Tool & Die. They are very reasonably priced and include everything you need to install them including the threaded insert and all grade 8 bolts. They are relief cut for the bumpers/rear crossmember. I should have them installed soon then I can get the frame coated in Chassis Saver and start on the tub body work.
