'75 D100 Truck - Anyone have a source for core support bushings other than the poly body bushing kit offered by Energy Suspension? Rubber would be fine.

The factory ones have been discontinued and when I see them, they are $$$$. I did get a complete set from a dealer last year out of state, and got them for wholesale pricing ($7 ea I think it was). There were still a couple left but it was buy one here, buy two there.

When I actully saw them, I don't know why people insist on selling them for so much. Just a simple flat round bushing with a hole in the middle.

But to answer your question, no, I do not have a source for them other than to keep your eyes peeled for NOS.

Thanks for the feedback. That would exlain why they don't turn up in a basic search.

If you can get a part number and have a good parts guy at the dealer they can run the number.The fuel sender for my old Ram was discontinued.My buddy ran the number and found a dealer with one.He also found me two power pacs for the 66 Charger dash lights.He also found like 3 upper control arms for the 65 B body.Most parts guys are just too lazy to look and put the number on the computer.Rocky

If you know the measurements and material I might be able to have them cut on the water jet. I just had the forward cab mounts done for my '65 W100. We used some heavy industrial conveyor belting from a rock crusher plant. It worked perfect.

Thanks for the offer, I appreciate it. I ended up ordering the Energy Suspension kit as part of another parts order before I saw your post.
