If your trying to reduce the twist in the bushes longer shackles won't help, HOWEVER have a look at these:

One of the guys in the challenge competitions used to run these on a LWT with Volvo portal axles and the articulation was awesome!!!

My SWB runs on a set of extended shackles (and paras) and it eats spring bushes as well.  I keep promising myself that I am going to buy bushes from LR rather than copy parts because I'm sure the cheap copys just are not up to the job.  The other thought was the polybush route but I'm told that they can give a harsh ride. Anyone got any experience of a leafer on polybushes?
