Cab mount bushings?
Did you just pick them up from a local parts store or did you order a kit from LMC, USA1, etc.? Do you have any recommendations or products to avoid?

Re: Cab mount bushings?
I needed some core support bushings and found that they are pretty hard to find at the moment, ended up buying from Brothers (and paying too much and waiting too long) but that's how it goes.
They likely all come from the same supplier. LMC, Brothers, USA1, etc.

Re: Cab mount bushings?
I bought poly bushings from Summit, Energy Suspension brand and they came with the core support bushings. My old rubber ones didn't seem that bad but it totally changed the truck after the poly bushings were installed. It was like it had less torsional flex if that makes sense. I would buy them again.

Mine is a crew cab dually so I will definitely never see an autocross track but it felt more solid after the bushing replacement. Everything lined up as it should, no complaints at all. |

Re: Cab mount bushings?
Got mine from LMC. Was amazed at how much the rear mounts had collapsed. I lucked out and didn't have to replace the bolts.

I bought poly bushings from rockauto, Energy Suspension brand and they came with the core support bushings. I got lucky and the poly set was on sale

Re: Cab mount bushings?
