Description

Renew the cushioned pivot at your rear leaf spring shackle with the Dorman - OE Solutions Leaf Spring Shackle Bushing, part number 541-581, a direct replacement for the 1976-1986 Jeep CJ7, 1976-1983 Jeep CJ5 and 1966-1971 Ford Ranchero. This suspension leaf spring bushing sits in the shackle that links the end of the leaf spring to the frame. It cushions that joint and lets the shackle swing as the spring compresses and extends. It is cataloged for the rear, rear upper and rear lower positions. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for complete application details.

Direct replacement: Built to fit and work like the factory bushing on the listed applications.
Reliable fit: Precision-engineered to mirror the design and dimensions of the original components.
Durable construction: Made to strict standards from sturdy, safe materials.
Rigorously tested: Put through thorough quality-control checks.

Signs a shackle bushing may need replacing include clunking or squeaking from the rear over bumps, extra rear axle movement, and cracked or worn bushings. These symptoms can have other causes, so inspect the suspension first. If worn shackle bushings are the cause, this Dorman bushing replaces them.
