Replace Shock Bushings?
I have a set of Tokico Illuminas that, except for some extremely distorted and split rubber eye bushings on the front set, are in incledibly good shape.
Has anyone replaced the eye bushings on a set of these or other shocks and if so how hard was the job.
I presume using polyurethanes from Performance Suspension is the route to go, but I am open to suggestions.
If you have experience with Illuminas, please tell me if the replacements are 1 1/4", 1 5/8", 1 7/16" or 1 9/16" long AND if they are 5/8" or 3/4" I.D. AND if they are "standard straight", "standard hourglass", "chrysler straight" or "large race hourglass" in shape.
Thanks
Jeff
