Question Replacing Shock Bushings

I have gone to the Rancho web site, but doesn't seem to be any info for this particular shock. Can Rancho 9000 bushings be replaced? My shocks are only two and half years old and the top bushings are hardened and slaping around making noise.

Go to energysuspension.com and see if they do poly bushings for your application.

Rancho got back to me and yes the RS 9000 shock bushings can be replaced using RS 980. Comes as a set of 2 and cost about $7.85. Lazy k thanks for your help, but energysuspensions said that rancho modifies their shock specifications so often that the only way to get a replacement was to tear your shock apart and measure it and then shop their site. Thanks again.
