Shock Absorber mounting hardware
'95 F250 4X4 has new shocks from previous owner...but shocks rattle a little in lower bracket because it looks like the worn, original mounting hardware was used. Seems like it needs a new bolt and a corresponding metal sleeve to fit inside the shock absorber bushing. I can grab the shock and wiggle it on the bolt.
Does anyone know of a source for just the mounting hardware? I don't want to buy new shocks just to get the hardware.

I had that problem on my old Ranch RS5000 shocks. I still have the original bolts. It was the sleeve and the eye bushing that were the problem. Part of the problem is the rubber bushing. I don't have this problem with my Rancho RSX shocks. They have poly / silica bushings.
