I think the entire set runs about $50. I tried making some of the urethane bushing from the local parts house work but they just don't cut the mustard. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2009 Posts: 24 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Dec 2009 Posts: 24 | Hi Jeff, There is a classic truck parts supplier that I get a lot of my parts from called Jim Carter. They have a lot different parts you can buy, new and used. Their prices are usually pretty good too. Maybe they can help you find what you're looking for.
