Leaf Spring Bushing Help
I am trying to replace the bushings on my 96 Bronco and found a small problem. Both of the Energy Suspension kits don't fit the front eyelet on my springs.
Anyone else run into this?
Thanks,
Eli

Are they too small, too big?
Is the entire front bushing out?
Most stock bushings have a metal sleeve on the outside of the bushing. They have a tendancy to rust to the spring and remain in place when trying to remove the bushing.

Yep, I'd think the metal sleeve is still in there. Use a Sawzall to cut thru it 180 apart and then pound it out.
LOL. I'm a tard. :twak I was in a hurry when I posted.
The bushing is too small even with the sleeve still in.
