Hello, I have the vehicle listed above I just bought. The owner told me it needs a leaf spring shackle in the rear. So I took it to a local mechanic to get the work done and he comes back and tell me that something was wrong with my chassis. Where the part suppose to go there is nothing there to hold it up. He did not tell me how to fix it but urge me not to put anything heavy in the flatbed. How can I fix this problem?

You will have to take it somewhere that does frame work and have them do some fabrication and welding. They will also be able to put that shackle in too.
