numbers or mike o spring bushing help please

I need the shackle bushings for a 1978 f250 4x4 front spring shackle. Reg. cab, 4x4, front leaf set up. One source says they are all the same from 1979 back on that bushing, others say the are different. I need the 2 bushings and am having trouble sourcing them on the aftermarket. I get a different answer every time I call the parts house.
