Okay i have a 94 yota im tryina do this swap on but the bushings needed replacing in the springs i got so we went ahead an removed them. Now i cannot find anywhere to get new bushings. anybody got any ideas? i think the truck i got em off of was somewhere around a 2000 model 2wd.
another thing is mine are only a 2 leaf and overload. has anybody ever used these on the swap? most i see now that i already got them are atleast 3 leaf and overload. Thanks for any help

I've never done this swap but im sure the bushings are online somewhere or maybe you have to go to the ford dealer. Why are you not going with the 3 spring and overload setup?

I wasnt intending too thats jus what i got ahold of at the local pull a part.

motocrossaddict223

Oh, will that give you the desired height? Because unless the arch is significantly more than the three pack it should be lower.

blueyota38

I wouldnt figure it would be much lower if any. Jus from the fact that its coming off a longbed for f150 that def. weighs more than my little bobbed off flatbed. but i was looking for ride quality/ flex with this. ill more than likely have to put a inch or two block under them to match my front lift. I got a 4in sas on the front an now i have stock leafs with add a leaf and 3in blocks and its still lower than the front by 2 inches or so. but i figure even if i block the ford springs itll still ride an flex better than where im at now. I would really like to find some polyeurothane ( or however u spell it) bushings to put in it as aposed to press in stock bushings but ill take stock if thats all i can get.

Are you sure you want to put a block on it? Chevy 63's give you 4 inches of lift....

blueyota38

63s do less than the ford springs lift wise.. but even if i wanted to go 63s i dont have the frame to mount the shackle mounts further. my frames bobbed at the stock shackle mount.

Ohh, good thing you've done your homework because i certainly did not! Anyway Ford should have your bushings.

blueyota38

if i cant find an aftermarket for it i reckon ill have no choice! lol

motocrossaddict223

That's so surprising! Have you tried summit and Moog?

Here's Moog: http://www.moog-suspension-parts.com/

blueyota38

yea moog dont show anything for sure ill check summit but i work at an auto parts house so ive pretty much decided moog, dorman, rockhill chassis, and stuff like them aint gonna have anything for it

motocrossaddict223

hmm sorry to hear that, it definitely puts your plans on hold. Next start looking for other models with the same bushings i guess.

idk which way i should go ill figure somethin out
