something in the rear suspension of my junk is driving me nutz..
i've recently upgaded to new Rusty's 3.5" leaf pack & in conjunction w/ a 1.5" lift shackle (also less than 2 months old/new), after running it for about a week less than 1k miles something started to clunk/rattle (sorta sounds like when a drawbar rattles in a receiver hitch) when i'd go over a bump..
i went over every bolt & nut & made sure every thing was tight & still this noise persists..
the rear spring eye bushings appear to be ok, but i wonder if they are in some way faulty & are causing the racket...
Does anybody know if Rusty's spring eye bushings (rubber i think) or the shackle (also Rusty's) bushings (poly i think) have a tendency to be el-cheapo & give to much & allow this sort noise to happen??
