WTB Inner Torque Reaction Spring Bushing
I'm looking for the bushing that goes into the inner TRS shackle. I'd also take the whole shackle if someone has one with a new bushing already installed.
Thanks,
-Michael

Did you check to see if a 359039 Spring Pivot Bushing can be cut to fit?

Yeah. The bushing has a larger OD than the hole in the shackle. I don’t have a lathe or a good way to size it to fit.

I bought mine from McMaster-Carr. Here's my write up on the shackles and bushings:

I have misplaced my Flagg Bushing Catalog. That bushing, except for length might possibly be off the shelf. Flagg is a manufacturer of spring components. I have the special TRS parts tucked away in my spares. Have a feeling that some suppliers in USA may have French surplus WOF TRS parts.

Re: WTB Inner Torque Reaction Spring Bushing
Dave, great post. It appears the ID of my spring shackle isn’t the same diameter as yours, it’s smaller (0.688”). I can’t use a spring pivot bushing cut to the width of the shackle because of the smaller ID.

The Shackle Bolt for the TRS has two diameters. W.O.F. is the same.
