Leaf Shackle Oddity
So having to change rear bushing in leaf spring. Apparently the rear leaf bolt was messed up which caused it to torque properly before the shackle was actually tight causing the bushing to wear prematurely. Anyway, ordered a new Dayton brand shackle. It came and the entire thing is steel. As in no bushing. Where the bushing would be is just a welded steel cap, and a steel tube in center for bolt to go through. OEM is a rubber bushing. Seems all other aftermarket are rubber bushings. I couldn't tell that this was solid metal from pics when I ordered. So unless you want solid steel, I wouldn't use dayton shackle

Sounds like the toilet seat that I recently ordered from Amazon. Ordered one style in the color Bisque. What I received was what appeared to be a factory banded box, with a white seat inside. The outer box had all the correct factory Kohler part #s. The seat inside it was factory shrink wrapped...wrong style seat, marked as being white. S!!T happens...

The photo they took of the delivered item didn't make it apparent that you did not receive a radiator or did someone literally put a curtain rod in the size of a radiator box? Plus there's the weight...they should be able to see the weight of the item in the system and know it's not a radiator..those boxes are weighed before departure regardless of contents.
it was a 4ft long x 6" x 6" box. No truck radiator was fitting in that.
