Polyurethane Bushings

The bushings on all four leaf springs are trashed and in need of being replaced. I have heard that when replacing Polyurethane ones are the way to go. Can anyone reccomend a specific brand, or a brand to stay away from? Also a place with a good product at a fair price?

Thanks Guys

Re: Polyurethane Bushings

I cant seem to find them on the 4 wheel parts website with that part number you have listed on the instructions page?? I would like to order them today so I can replace them this weekend.

Re: Polyurethane Bushings

ok i called them up and they are getting everything ordered, the only unsure part is about the rear spring rear shackle. The guy @ 4 Wheel parts wanted to know if the bushings in that rear shackle have the metal sleeve around them. I cant see one way or the other with the spring still on the truck. Is there one???
