I believe everyone agrees that these do the job with no problem

These are the most common:

These are a fairly new i believe, and i THINK they might even be made by a member on here...not sure though. These also come in 1.5", 2.0" and 3.0" lengths.

I know some also run these, Much cheaper, but look alot cheaper.

Hope that helps

Personally I would not put the autozone ones on my vehicle, I know some have and haven't had issues but I've heard of many more that have and twisted them first time out, no cross bracing = bad. Spend the extra cash for a quality shackle, just my opinion.

Agreed, I wouldnt use Autozone Shackles if you intend to go off-road.
If you are doing it for cosmetics you could prolly get away with it, but i would still put forth the extra money and get the ebay ones.
