I have an early frame CJ5 (1955) and going to convert to the 1958 and up. Currently my pivots are at the corners and shackles in between the tires. It has the threaded C style shackles. I want to change shackle brackets to non threaded type and also change the spring pivot brackets. Which pivot bracket would you recommend, geaseable or non greaseable? I will be installing new BDS springs at the same time.
