Can't find the correct bushing for the rear suspension!

Hi Guys,

I have a 1996 E250 5.8, I tried to order the 4 bushing for the leaf springs but both set I ordered were too small. I ordered due to the vans specs but it seems there is a bigger size in the springs, than it should be. That van was a government owned vehicle, did they do some special order or I really don't know what I should do. I hate it to hear the constant squeak coming from the rear end. Does anybody an idea where I can order the correct ones or at least how I can find out what is in. To take out and measure them seems to be logical but it isn't as I am in Europe and no mechanic like to have a van in the court two weeks long waiting for the parts ( I played that game twice... ) so if no other choice exists then OK I do that again but if you know a real reliable info source where I can get the right size or even better I can order them, that would be the best.

Thank you in advance for the help.

Hi,

sorry for long absence I wasn't at my desk for a while. So call is surely not free for me as I am located in the middle of Europe . So what data I must provide you so you can find the right parts for my van?

Greetings from Hungary!
