I found the answer. There is a rubber bushing that goes between the hex on the shackle sleeve the goes through the frame and the spring end, and...
Right. Just not sure if I installed them incorrectly, or if have the wrong part installed, or if I just need to take up the space with a spacer or...
Got the pictures up. Wanted to get this suspension figured out so I can move on to some other stuff. Thanks for any advice!

Hello, I have a conundrum regarding my springs. My Jeep is a CJ5, but the frame was so rotten I had to replace it. I found a pretty solid M38A1...

If I'm not mistaken the engine isn't supposed to sit level. The passenger side is supposed to be lower than the drivers side, hence the wood...
As soon as I got the new rubber insulator part all the light bulbs went on, and things make sense. My rubber insulator has broken in half. One...
That looks like mine. Same snubber for the D18. I will look at my trans mount again tomorrow to see if that's what I have. I think it is. I still...
This will probably come in handy! Thanks!

Thanks very much for any info!
