Brass/bronze shackle bushings
A guy in Australia is looking for brass/bronze front and rear shackle bushings for his 1928 AR. Need suggestions on where to get them. I suggested he source the material and make them but he is not setup to do so. I think I can rework 1909-1913 brass rear T bushings for the fronts but they would be too short for the rear. (have to do more checking)
Thanks

Re: Brass/bronze shackle bushings
Isnt there some form of a fastenal or McMaster carr in AU? The bushings are nothing special so any ol brass/bronze bushing will work and come in a near infinite sizes.
