Post by: BIG CHEVY on October 24, 2012, 09:51:30 pm

dunno how to help you on what ones to find but they just slide in and out to change them. try to find the manufacturer of your lift kit.

If that is the front spring, it should take a factory bushing, so just about any company should have it.  P-S-T, Energy Suspension, etc..

     It would be a good idea to replace all the front with a kit if not front and back.  If one is bad the others are really close to being bad.
