Leaf spring bushings

My '64 F250 needs new bushings, especially in the front. Who sells them? Polyurethane or rubber? DC and Rock auto didn't offer everything. LMC has polyurethane kits.
Thanks. John

I have coils up front but all suspension bushings on my truck front and rear were replaced with black poly. No regrets so far.

Your F250 rides rough enough as it is, no? Do yourself a favor and use rubber bushings. I did all mine in my '65 and at the time all rubber bushings were still available. It's a hellova job though.

You can get bushings from Eaton Detroit Spring.

Steve, you must have too much time on your hands these days.

Next thing you know, you’ll be carving a set of innie wheels from a tree you downed on your property a few decades ago . . . 👍
