mini-wini-dan Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Where can I get new rubber bushings for rear leaf springs? They are wasted and need replaced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapaFred Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Got mine from Summit Racing out of Atlanta. Old ones were worn out with 48,000 on rig. New ones made a big difference! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjrbus Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 When I looked into this urethane bushings were suggested. I used a product from Energy Suspension, but had an issue with their dealer so would use Pro Thane if doing again. http://prothane.com/ The issue was 2 of the bushings did not fit and the dealer acted like I did something wrong and wanted to sell me new bushings! People that have had the same issue with Pro Thane report that Pro Thane sent them the right bushing, no charge!! I did not have time to play around and went to NAPA who had the right bushings for me the next day, rubber not urethane. HTH Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanAatTheCape Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Sdtrucksprings has them, as does several others, HB-1004 bushings on eyes and HB-1102 bushings on top of shackles worked for me. Google those part numbers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skydancer2992 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 The Prothane kit for Toyota came with two large bushings and four small ones. My springs were all small ones. I replaced one side. Called Prothane and they sent me the two small ones needed to complete the other side. No charge. Great company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanAatTheCape Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Bet if you give them the harris bushing part numbers, they can cross over quite easily. I used those on a 93 winnie warrior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgibson4 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 It seems to depend on the model year. Our '87 took all small bushings even though Prothane listed a kit that had two of the larger size. I ordered the 18-1001 kit and it worked just fine. http://toyotamotorhome.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=8055 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warrior maintianer Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Had a good Toyota parts manager he got me the bushing for my motor home. (4) 90385-18146, (4) 90385-18012, (4) 90385-01846 . I chose the OEM because the urethane can really give a harsh ride. A local spring shop removed the springs installed the bushings and rearched the springs and but new nylon pads in place. $350.00, bushings were $ 2.60 each My springs were frozen when I got my motor home it sat that long. I freed them up before I had this done but what a difference it made in the ride height and ride. I have also added Firestone air bags it all works great.
