OK, I need to know if there are any sources for rubber body mount bushings - NOT POLY. I don't want any poly bushings anywhere. I know they have to be available somewhere.

 

I'm with you on this one.....but I have searched exhaustively for them and can not find them. I would love an OEM set of real rubber cab bushings as well.

I am casually working on trying to find replacement rubber bushing from some other application, Ford, GM, Jeep.....etc. Problem is that there are so few places that actually list dimensions for these bushings.

Maybe an E-mail to LMC would get us something.......eventually?

 

That's what I was afraid of. I know there has to be some kind of cross reference out there. At least something close. Maybe I'll just start looking at Frods, Chubbies, and other late-models in the junkyard to see if there's anything close. We're already behind the eight ball with our cabs' lovely tendency to crack the cowls, and I don't want to aggravate the situation any. I'll be close enough to LMC to warrant a trip if necessary later this year.

 

If you find something that works please let me know. I'll be sure to post up anything I find as well.

 

Yep,

I wanted the same but got poly off amazon. It floors me that dodge doesn't sell a set for $100. But I guess they want to sell you a new one every decade. Best way is offering no parts.

 

If one were to get a piece of tire recap that a tractor trailer lost, and sandwiched it between a cut piece of hockey puck, would it help? Not a whole lot of dampening but better than poly.

 

I wonder if these will work?

Dodge Bushings

 

Those are for control arms of some sort? Not sure if they would or not. Would need the dimensions first to know for sure. Possible they use a different durometer ratio for those, compared to the cab mounts?

I really would like to find a rubber bushing from another application that is specifically for a body to frame mount.

 

I am in the same boat. I really don't want poly bushings but if that is my only choice.......

 

Thinking outside the box, have you looked at tractor cab bushings?

Years ago, I used them on an old International pickup. They worked fine. The truck has a blown engine, but it sits at the neighbors. Looks like the cab is still sitting square.

I think I used bushings from a 85 HP Case or something close to that.
