Hello, we are brand new to Ford Barn so please bare with us as we may not know the correct language or correct protocols...

My husband is currently underneath our '29 Phaeton. He is trying to change the rear shackles. We ordered new ones from Mike's and he has been able to remove the driver's side shackle. The new shackles have bushings that are the same size and they appear to be what we need to replace on the spring side but the opening on the perch side has no bushing...??...the opening on the perch appears to be the same size as the opening on the bushing.

Can anyone please help and thank you!!

Michael (and Naomi doing the typing)...
