Refurb Shocks

Post by WYSpider »

My original shocks work just fine but the rubber bushings are cracked from age. Is it possible to replace the bushings?

Yes you can replace just the upper rubber bumpers/bushings. Most auto parts stores will have them as a set of two in the "help" section.

Are you looking for the original doughnut shaped ones or the common aftermarket ones that are thicker but smaller diameter?
