    it went missing, or i might have never had it.
    And the crush sleeve was basically stuck on the existing bolt.
    All in all a cluster fuck.
    Do have a little over 17" of travel, but thats unstrapped

    :p

    That happened to me with my shackles. A bolt was seized inside. It was a pain in the ass.

    Bruh was just gonna grind it off as close to the shackle and figure out how to push of the head of the bolt.
    With 2 spares the rear is going to sit stupid low. Time to save for a 50t
