Poly bushing kits available?
I have a 91 F150 4x4 and all my bushings,sway bar,susp etc.., are crushed and worn out. Do they make a total kit that I could get and start changing all of them out? I don't need anything too fantastic, My truck has 255,000 miles on the original motor and I don't go off raoding much. I do use it for my work which is construction so it does go off road some.
thanks all!

You can go to Energy Suspension
Your truck is part # 4.18101 for a "complete" kit.
Prothane is another option, but they tend to be a higher durometer. Kind of harsh.

Energy Suspension is good stuff. I currenlty have a master body & suspension kit from Daystar on my 84 Bronco. Cost about $200-$230. Included axle pivot bushings ( no metal sleeves, had to re-use the old ones), radius arm bushings, tie rod end boots, front anti-sway bar bushings and end link bushings ,rear leaf spring eye and shackle bushings. Bought the rear anti-sway bar bushings from Energy. Time consuming, took a few weekends, but a good diy project with 2 fllor jacks and air tools. The ride is much better than stock, since the old ones were dry-rotted or missing completely. A very good mod, one I've done on several vehicles in the past, JSM84
