Front Leaf Spring Bushing
The front leaf spring rear bushing is shot. Do you normally replace the whole unit or just the bushing. If just the bushing any tips on getting it out?
If the whole unit, any tips on where to purchase a new one?

I tried to find some for my truck 1967 - 1975 F250 Highboy and was unable to find a source. You can either drill out the rubber and then drive out the sleeve, or burn out the rubber then drive out the sleeve. I did purchase the new neopreme bushings but have not gotten to these bushings yet. I have noticed on a few of the builds that some people have removed the housing by drilling out the rivets then re-installing with grade 8 bolts.
