Bolts and Bushings and Such
I know there are similar posts in the truck thread, but wanted a fresh perspective with today's availability of parts.
I'm looking for the best body bushing kit (rad support and tub cushions along with bolts). Poly or rubber? And who offers the best kit that is close to oem. I have some parts in my cart at motorcityk5 but the shipping is outrageous. I've google searched a few "complete bolt kits" and see some are available. Have any of you purchased these? Again, looking for OE style. What have your experiences been like? Last one. I noticed I have a crack in one of my rear leaf springs. Who makes the best replacement springs? What about bushings/hardware? I had to cut my shackles out because they became one piece. |

X2 for Wes. I bought the rubber (not poly) kit and it was perfect.
