Replacing my leaf spring bushing. Found the moog part numbers for the front and rear eyes. My rear eyes use 3/4 bolts. Does the rear shackles use the same bushing as the spring eyes? I have removed the front rear upper thru the frame bushings including the sleeves, does moog make a bushing for this and what is the part number?

 

Anybody?

 

You are asking for front springs only?

 

Both front spring eyes should be 1'', both rear spring eyes should be 1 1/4''.

Front shackle (frame) bushings i would recommend these:

I installed them and they are a great product.

Rear spring shackle bushing is ~1 1/8'', i had a set of 1 1/4'' machined down to fit.

 

I can't find part numbers for the front or rear shackle bushings. Would like to have moog but can't find part number?

 

I was told rear spring shackle bushings are only available with the shackle, molded in piece. That's why i had a larger set turned down to fit.

 

Why not go with aftermarket polyurethane VS stock rubber?

Or are MOOG bushings polyurethane?

 

Not sure if moog is rubber just know they have been around for years. Looked on the struck spring and their rear shackle said it didn't come with the bushing. Read some older post and kinda got the idea you could use the same bushings that went in the eyes for the shackle on the back. I like the poly bushing but heard some people say they would squeak but having hard time finding either haven't looked at the link you gave me yet but fixing to.

 

That's why i went with all greasable poly bushings, no chance of squeak really.

 

Is that what you used on the blue crew you just finished that's a good looking truck by the way. Where did you buy all yours? Those front shackles look good too how do you get price on em?

 

Never mind just found the price on the front shackle kits.

 

No blue crew, truck in my avatar,

PM Jungle (Jim) and he can get you a price, he is on this site.

 

Sorry thinking of moneytlks truck. Did you get all your greasable bushings from jungle jim?

 

yes

 

Thanks a bunch ill get with him and see what he has to say. By the way you were helping me on my other leaf spring issue being offset to the rear. Been measuring another truck and comparing to mine and everything on the suspension is correct so im hoping I can correct the problem with the way the bed mounts. After I get the rear suspension back under it gonna do a test fit with the bed. Thanks for all your help.
