Customizing my rear '85 springs for the front. The old front bushing on the rear springs had the rusted sleeve-bolt problem. Had no choice but to bust apart and clean out all the existing factory bushing. Anyone know of a Daystar or Energy Susp. replacement bushing kit that will allow me to use the existing front frame pin to mount these on the front??? Thanks all.

I carry a replacement poly bushing that comes with a sleeve to allow a 14mm bolt (like stock) or remove the sleeve for an 18mm bolt (like the front pin) to be used, $20 for the pair + shipping:

By Pair, do you mean the 2 pieces for one spring, or the set for 2 (pair of) springs? Thanks Roger.

A pair of bushings for one pair of springs, i.e. 2 pair of 2 bushing halves and sleeves. So 4 bushing halves and 2 sleeves total.
