Where can I get these Bushings?

Per Howard Coleman's VERY informative suspension post:

"The lower longitudinal link that absorbs all the braking and acceleration has a big fat rubber bushing in the front. It needs to be replaced.

The other set of bushings are the two at the top of the differential."

These bushings should be replaced with something much firmer. Where can I get JUST these bushings? Is there a vendor that produces them?

Thanks,
ian

ian,

various vendors sell a tubular replacement for the lower longitudunal link. it replaces the aluminum mazda link w a tube and rod end for the bushing. that solves bushing number 1.

i suggest you contact Energysuspension.com and ask them about the diff bushings. if they don't sell them perhaps if someone provided them the dimension they would make up a bunch.... they would have no problem selling them.

also, you could do the same w bushing number 1.
