bought the brass bushings and greasable pins from filling station to redo the leafs,   one problem , the bushings are way too big for the shackle hangers  , they are the correct size for the springs tho...  has anyone else noticed this???  Got the one brass bushing out using a hack saw,, got 3 more to go but would like to find the right bushing .  If i play my cards this thing could be on wheels very soon.       thanks for reading.

so looks like 3/4 for the springs and 11/16" bushings on the frame
