Thanks, I see the rust, indicating a crack has started between the
frame and perch from being wiggled back and forth.

It pains me to side with Bill, but those are horrible. I can't imagine how
they don't screw up the steering geometry -- I saw what you said to Mike about no vibes, but you have mucked up the driveshaft angles for both ends or your Jeep, and have severely hosed the Caster angle, which should make handling an interesting experience. But, even if you have no vibes and no handling problems, those shackles should be outlawed. Sorry.
