The bushings are the same for the spring eyes and shackle pivot. There were some guys a few years ago that found urethane bushing, but I don't recall where.

I got some years ago, but I can't find the link. IIRC, I couldn't find anything under Montero\raider, but got the D-50\Mightymax ones. I'm still trying to confirm that info, but I think I got them from http://www.energysuspensionparts.com/proddetail.asp?prod=5%2E2103.

[edit] I can't find my actual purchase info from 2009, but the last thing I saw was looking into buying the d50 bushings above.

I bought original bushings from a Mitsubishi dealer, the difference is the length, the shackles are stepped so the upper bushings are longer at the top. Can't remember which company making the Hard bushings said they suspected the MIghty Max used the same bushings, but would not verify it, they do actually, che EB there was a kit for the MIghty Max that was cheaper than the OEM bushings.
This was for my '88 Raider.
