This post is much shorter as the photos are self evidence of the seriousness of this rust problem in a real important area of our bus and integrity of this area is especially needed for safety for your vehicle and any others that could get injured from a collapse of a shackle box supporting the torsilastic suspension. This can be prevented in the future with the tack welding of a plate at the bottom of the shackle box preventing any and all road debris from ever attacking your suspension support system again. Enjoy this short post but many photos.
