I have a 1947 Studebaker Champion two door. This car started to lean to the left. I looked underneath and discovered that the left shackle bolt was broken. I can't find anyone with one of these squared shackle bolts. This car has a transverse leaf spring in the front. I would like to change this car to disc brakes in the front. I'm thinking that maybe this is a good time. Bear minimum I need the shackle bolt so that I can at least fix this car and get it back on the road. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any help. Sincerely,Hal 9000
