Axle bump stops

I was putting some new shocks on my 89 the other day and I made the mistake of reaching up and wiggling the rubber axle bumps. They promptly came off in my hand... rusted through! I'm not sure my axle has or will ever hit them but... anyone have a source for replacements?

Been there, done that. The T-shirt bled all over my unmentionables.

I'm interested as well.

You might check into some Timbren's. They bolt right on where the stock bumpers were. It's an upgrade from stock, as well.

Just about all of those Urethane bushing companies sell them.

Also, I doubt it is critical if the replacements came from a Ford, Chevy, or Studebaker, providing they sort of bolt up.

Hardly a day passes that I don't see several in the road.

I'm using Timbrens for bump stops. Great suspension upgrade, BTW. Skyjacker lift required a little fabbing to get them properly installed:
