Gonna be hard to know for sure what to get unless we know what you have now.

So do you have stock springs with add ons to make them 6", lift springs of some sort or possibly an rsk with SD lift springs?

Bushings can be a pain to replace sometimes on older springs. Might be worth looking at new springs themselves. ATS springs are nice and depending on where you are shipping isn't too bad. Just got a new pair custom arched and with new u bolts and shipping it was like 380 to my door.

As for just the bushing energy may have something as Khan mentioned. On my older cars, a company called Global West makes "del-a-lum" bushings which are supposed to be great but theyre pricey.
