Anyone know part numbers for I-beam and radius arm bushings?

Local parts store can't find them everything else has been changed and the truck still clunks and wanders around on the road.

Thanks,

If you want the Ford part numbers, prices (MSRP & PartsGuyEd.com's discount) for the 2001, I can help. If for the 2008, I cannot.

I'll take the numbers for an 02 model (I'm guessing the same as the 01)

Is that what this is? Pardon my ignorance. I have a 2000 F250 SD 7.3 4x2
I noticed the bushings were dry and cracked but not sure if it is radius arm to frame?
It looks wet because I am soaking it in Fluid Film.

Yes, that's your radius arm bushing. Any noises coming from there? When mine went bad it made a loud pop while turning and going up or down an incline (pulling into / out of parking lot).

I replaced them with energy suspension bushings and they squeaked all the time. Went back with a Ford set to quite things down.

Good to go, thanks F350-6,
Are they a pain to replace? I found them on Amazon: Ford F81Z-3B203-AA - INSULATOR For $20 and free shipping. I sometimes hear popping when going over bumps. Going to replace the stabilizer bushings as well. Just replaced the front shocks with Bilsteins!

Not bad if you have access to a press. The old ones don't want to come out. Of course that means pulling the spring and removing the radius arm, but that's not actually to bad a deal.

If you don't have a press, you'll wear yourself out with a hammer and something to try and punch the old busing out with. I've got a harbor freight press that made sort work of it.

Semper Fi.
