  • Spring perch bushings

    Y'all know the rubber O bushings that sit on top and bottom of the springs?
    Anyone know where to get new ones, or is this something I'm going to have to make?

    That's a good question. I'd like to know too. I'm getting ready for my suspension swap on Lux next week (knock on wood).

    I cut my Aspire springs on my new HF cutoff wheel.

    My front struts had no rubber doughnuts at the spring bottoms for some reason. I'm thinking of spraying a bunch of truck bed liner to cushion the perch seats a bit and reduce any noise.

    But I'd rather have new rubber doughnuts.
