67 4x4 needs new spring bushings - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

tried searching but didn't find much

I need to replace all of the spring/shackle bushings and body mounts on my 67 3/4 4x4.
where is the best place to find them? Urethane or rubber better for a daily driver?

Got mine from LMC but I'm sure some of the board vendors would have them. The urethane will give you a lot stiffer ride and better handling but the rubber will give you a more comfortable ride

mtake measurements of what you need and if you go to a good autoparts store,or a local spring shop you wont need to pay shipping

I got the greasable bushing kit from Off Road Design in Colorado. The old ones were a PITA to get out but fortunately I got new springs as well so a little fire from the gas axe took care of them. I'm happy with the new bushings and the Off Road people were great to work with.
