Cab bushings.

Can anyone tell me the dimentions of replacement bushings. I know about the Urethane kit, but want to see if I can find rubber mounts that will fit. If anyone has the Energy Suspension and can tell me the urethane dimentions, Id appreciate it.

thanks,

Heres what Ive seen. Heres a picture of my front mounts. Here are some aftermarket rubber mounts. One is 3/4 the other is 1 1/4 thick. And they are RUBBER.

The only option I know of is Poly bushings, or using hard to find decent, old OEM used ones.

Thats what I understand, but if I know what the new dimentions are, I may be able to source something, and I have a friend that makes bushings.

I will watch what you guys can find, because up to now I have picked through my old OEM bushing collection for my own builds.
I do want to use the stiff poly option.

Thought of that myself and checked with a new set I have.....not really and you might have to stack them.

I don’t know how to link it to your page. It’s my truck build I haven’t added to it in a while no one seems interested in it lately
