I believe your rig does not have the wet bolts installed, and if not, this would be an excellent time to do the upgrade with the bronze bushings and the bolts with the zerks that can be greased. If you broke one shackle bolt, I would suspect all of them should be replaced. http://www.morryde.com/products/70-h...le-upgrade-kit
WOW! 2018 High Country doesn't have wet bolts from factory?
