Yep built manny spring pacs, loose fasteners set weight on it bounce and roll back n forth. But the thing was twisted before I put a wrench on it!
The u bolts are fine parralell and square.... What I meant was a 60 uses round u bolts (iirc) as the ttb has square housings not traditional round ones.

Guess my plans for road trip get to go on hold, time to wrench on the crawler.

The only issue is the fr leaf spring bush....
Word is they come stacked on edge' thus the bottom one gets a set in the rubber( unconfirmed as to my issue or not) the bolts were nice the rest is fine.
Got shipped here when promised cheaper than central cal.
Heck cheaper shipping than everyone, springworks just over the hill ' forgetaboutit!'
Last talked with sr.
We will see what shakes out( positive vibes so far)!

Almost looks like the dogbones have a left and right side?

I can only share that when I replaced all of my TTB's bushings I wrestled, cussed, pried and come-along seemingly every connection and nothing looked right.

The bushes were faulty new from factory.
Fwiw
The company blamed the manufacturer, but basically stood behind the sale.
