Previous Thread Next Thread Print Thread Rate Thread Rear leaf spring bushings - Gen1 Trooper #825559 07/17/07 11:05 PM Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 114 S Shovel OP Wheeler I have rear bushing questions! Rear I installed aftermarket shackles on the rear of my Trooper. However, they came with 3/8" bolts and 3/8" bolt holes, and the rubber bushings in the Trooper leaf springs have 1/2" holes in them. Is there a bushing kit made that fits the Trooper springs and the standard 3/8" shackle bolts.. perhaps one with the hardened metal sleeve? Any suggestions are appreciated!

I got a set from INDEPENDENT4X and it was .500" holes and bolts.

I bought mine from Fly-N-Hi (the company I work for is affiliated with them = drastic discount) - but I guess the discount wasn't that great since now I get to drill out the holes to .5" and buy new bolts <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Thanks for the info, that solves my problem <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> Re: Rear leaf spring bushings - Gen1 Trooper [Re: Shovel] #825562 07/18/07 10:41 PM Joined: Jul 2007 Posts: 17 F frankinpa Need a Spot Ya mine had some homemade jobs on it and the little bolts puked <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />under the strain of the mighty 2.6.
